Meaning and origin

What does Toni mean?

Meaning: short form of Antonia; from an old Roman family name of unknown meaning
Origin: Latin

Toni is a short form of Antonia and Antoinette, given to girls in America (and to boys in Italy and Spain). It goes back to the Latin Antonius, the name of a Roman family whose meaning is unknown; the idea that it means “priceless” is a late explanation without solid basis.
