Meaning & Origin
A monic polynomial.
Monic is a girl's baby name of Latin origin, a variant spelling of Monica meaning 'advisor' or 'unique,' with possible connections to the North African Punic language. Saint Monica, mother of Saint Augustine, is one of the most venerated bearers of the name.
Monic strips Monica to its core, creating a minimal, clipped alternative. It appears in American records primarily from the mid-20th century, used occasionally as a simplified form of the more common Monica or as an independent spelling choice.
