What is the meaning of the name Tonny ?

The baby name Tonny is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈtoʊni/ or /ˈtəʊni/ (TOH-nee).

Tonny is Latin in Origin.

Tonny is a Scandinavian and Dutch given name that began as a pet form of Anton, Anthony, or the Latin Antonius. Antonius was a Roman family name probably of Etruscan origin, so its precise meaning is unknown; medieval usage sometimes connected it with Greek anthos “flower,” a popular but linguistically doubtful association reinforced by the prestige of Saints Anthony the Great and Anthony of Padua.

Established as an independent name in the 20th century, Tonny appears widely in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and the Netherlands, where short forms often became official. It is unisex in use, though predominantly masculine in Denmark and the Netherlands, with occasional feminine use in Norway and Sweden. Close variants and cognates include Tony, Toni, Tonnie, Toney, Toon and Toine (Dutch), as well as the longer forms Anton, Anthony, Antoine, Antonio, Antoni, and Antonia. Related nicknames include Ton and, in Spanish contexts, Toño.
