What is the meaning of the name Mony ?

The baby name Mony is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced MOH-nee (English: /ˈmoʊni/; Khmer approx.: /moːɲ/).

Mony is Khmer in Origin.

Mony is a cross-cultural given name best known in Cambodia, where it reflects the Khmer borrowing of Sanskrit maṇi, “jewel” or “precious stone.” In Khmer it is commonly unisex and appears both as a standalone name and in compounds, with romanized spellings Mony and Moni used interchangeably. The element entered Khmer through centuries of Indic cultural influence and is frequent in literary, royal, and temple contexts, later becoming a modern personal name with steady usage at home and in the diaspora.

Beyond Southeast Asia, Mony functions as a variant or affectionate short form of several Western names, especially Monica, Monika, Monique, and Simone; in Hebrew/Israeli use, the closely related Moni is a familiar nickname for Shimon. Spelling variants include Moni, Monny, Monnie, and Monie, with related forms Mani and Moni- compounds. The core meaning across these streams remains “jewel,” conveying brightness, value, and good fortune.
