Re: The name Zeffie
in reply to a message by Anita
Anita--
Perhaps Zeffie is a nickname or shortened version for the names Zephania or another feminization for Zephaniah. All three of these names turn up in records from the South regarding people born in the mid to late 1800's. It could also be a nn or version of the name Zephrine, especially if you have a French background.

Note: The name Zephrine on this site is spelled (and a more correct spelling it is) Zephyrine.
