英文释义
专有名词
-
A diminutive of the female names Wilhelmina, Minerva, Mary, Mina, Mamie and Hermione. Popular as a formal female given name in the 19th century.
— When they are used to express the affectionate regard of near friends and relatives they also may be pretty and appropriate, but they look very silly in a formal signature, and surely do not befit the dignity of womanhood. We had, for instance, among these 800 names scores of Minnies, Mamies, and only here and there a Mary, a much more euphonious as well as a dignified name.
- A surname.
- Minneapolis.
- Alternative letter-case form of minnie (“minenwerfer trench mortar”).
