What is the meaning of the name Rony ?

The baby name Rony is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced ROH-nee (IPA: /ˈroʊni/).

Rony is Hebrew in Origin.

Rony is a compact, unisex name with several roots. In English and Scandinavian contexts it functions as a diminutive of Ronald or Ronaldo, from Old Norse Rǫgnvaldr (regin “counsel, divine powers” + valdr “ruler”), yielding meanings such as “ruler’s counselor” or “mighty ruler.” In Hebrew, Rony/Roni derives from the verb ranan (“to sing, rejoice”) and is read as “my joy” or “my song.” It can also appear as a familiar form of Veronica via Ronnie.

The name rose in the mid-20th century alongside Ronnie/Ronny in Britain and North America, then spread widely in Latin America, Israel, and South Asia, where Rony is often used as an independent given name. Common variants and relatives include Ronnie, Ronny, Roni, Ron, Ronald, Ronaldo, and, for women, Veronica. Spellings without the final “e” (Rony/Roni) tend to skew more international and, in Israel, more unisex.
