Patti: meaning and origin
Patti is a variant of Patty, says Behind the Name. Patty began as a variant of Matty, a 17th-century nickname for Martha, and is now commonly used as a short form of Patricia. Patricia is the feminine form of Patricius, a Latin name meaning “nobleman, patrician”, so Patti has a double heritage.
Nicknames and variants
Behind the Name lists Pat, Patsy, Pattie, Patty, Tricia, Trish and Trisha among the related English forms. Patti is itself the friendly short form, ready to grow into Patricia.
