Whitny is a girl’s name meaning “white island.” While it refers to someone from a small parish in England, the moniker or rather its variant gained super-stardom thanks to one of the greatest singers of all time, Whitney Houston. If her music has personally resonated with you, Whitny makes for a great homage. And who knows, perhaps it just might nurture the voice of the next generation!
