Effie

US Popularity Rank: 3819

Origin: Gaelic

Meaning: Well-spoken; Speckled

Effie is a feminine name of Greek origin to teach baby the power of their voice. A shortened form of the name Euphemia, Effie means “well-spoken.” Effie may also derive from the Gaelic Oighrig and Aithbhreac, meaning "speckled." Not only is this a cute, modern version of a vintage name, but it also reminds baby that the words they speak can hold plenty of weight.
