Envee
A girl's name with 26 recorded U.S. births.
Meaning & Origin
Envee is a one-syllable girl's name with a bright, upbeat sound — lending a cheerful, energetic quality. With only 26 recorded U.S. births, it is exceptionally rare — the kind of name most people encounter for the first time when they meet your child.
Envee is not in the current top 1,000 girl names nationally, making it an uncommon choice — though your state or community may differ.
Envee is a girl's baby name of uncertain origin, a phonetic spelling of the letter combination NV — possibly inspired by the word 'envy' or by the phonetic rendering of a desired quality or feeling into a name. It may also be a creative variant of names like Avie or Neve.
Envee is the kind of name that arrives fully formed from a parent's imagination — short, sharp, and visually striking. The double-e ending softens what might otherwise be an edgy name into something more lyrical. It's a name that sounds modern, memorable, and completely its own thing. No one else in the classroom will have this name.

Envee's linguistic roots are not definitively traced to a single tradition.
