Terri: meaning and origin

Terri works two ways. Behind the Name calls it either a feminine form of Terry or a diminutive of Theresa, and Wikipedia agrees that it is both a spelling of Terry and a short form of Teresa. So one Terri might be named after a Terence in the family, and another after a grandmother Theresa.

Nicknames and variants

Behind the Name lists Teri, Terrie and Terry as spellings of Terri, and Tess, Tessa and Tessie through its Theresa side. Tess is the classic choice for a Terri who wants something different.
