Remmy is French in Origin.

Remmy is a modern Anglicized spelling of Rémy/Remy, the French form of the late Latin Remigius, from remex “oarsman, rower.” The name gained prominence through Saint Remigius (St. Rémy), the 5th-century bishop of Reims who baptized the Frankish king Clovis I, securing its long-standing use in France. In English-speaking countries Remmy has risen as a unisex given name since the 2010s.

Variants include Rémy/Remy, Remi, Remmie, and the learned forms Remigius (Latin/German), Remigio (Italian/Spanish), and Remigiusz (Polish); short forms include Rem. In North America, Remmy also serves as a nickname for Remington, a surname-place name often interpreted as “raven settlement,” though this is a separate etymology. The primary meaning attached to Remmy via Remigius is “oarsman” or “rower,” sometimes broadened to ideas of guidance and steady progress; the double‑m spelling simply cues the English reh‑mee pronunciation.
