If Linda, Lindsay, or Belinda sound too formal, there's always Lindi, a girl's name of American, German, Spanish, and Portuguese origins. From the German lind, Lindi gets the meanings "tender," "soft," and "flexible," while the Spanish and Portuguese linda lends the endearment "beautiful." Lindi has a trendy side that sets itself apart from other nicknames. As a variation of the American Lindy, Lindi may be inspired by the 1920s dance, the Lindy Hop, possibly named after the aviator Charles Lindbergh. Whether looking for a name that complements baby's soft side or something that'll put a big pep in their step, Lindi couldn't be a sweeter choice.
