Meaning & History

In Dutch and Frisian, this name is a short form of given names containing the Germanic element kuni meaning "clan, family, kin, race, kind". In other words, you could say that this name is the Dutch and Frisian cognate of KUNO.

In German, this name is a pet form of KONRAD and KUNIBERT (masculine) and KUNIGUNDE (feminine). You could even consider it to be a variant of KUNO, at least in the case of male bearers.
