Joanie is Greek in Origin.
Joanie is an affectionate English diminutive of Joan, the medieval feminine form of John. Through Latin Iohannes and Greek Ioannes back to Hebrew Yochanan, it carries the meaning "Yahweh is gracious" or "God is gracious." The -ie ending signals a friendly, colloquial pet-name in English, and the name is typically pronounced JOH-nee.
As a standalone given name, Joanie rose in the mid-20th century in the United States and other Anglophone countries, reinforced by pop-culture figures such as Joanie Sommers and the TV character Joanie Cunningham from Happy Days. Common variants and spellings include Joni, Jonie, and Joani; short forms are Jo and Jo-Jo. Related formal names from the same root include Joan, Joanna, Joanne, Johanna, and Jane, with international cognates such as Jeanne (French), Giovanna (Italian), Juana (Spanish), Ioana (Romanian), Siobhán (Irish), and Ivana (Slavic).
