What is the meaning of the name Munni ?

The baby name Munni is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced MUN-nee (IPA: /ˈmʊnni/).

Munni is Hindi, Hindu in Origin.

Munni is a feminine given name and affectionate byname in South Asia. In Hindustani (Hindi–Urdu), munni means “little girl” or “darling,” the feminine diminutive to Munna. The root connects to Hindi–Urdu mann/mun “heart, mind,” ultimately from Sanskrit manas, giving the sense “beloved child” or “dear one of the heart.”

Common as a household pet name (daak naam) in North India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, Munni also appears on official records and is used across Hindu, Muslim, and Sikh communities. Spelling variants include Munny and Munnee; regional forms include Munia and Muniya. The related masculine is Munna, while Muni, the Sanskrit word for “sage,” is etymologically distinct. As a given name, Munni conveys warmth and endearment more than formal status.
