Winnie

Winnie means "blessed reconciliation", according to etymological references. It peaked back in the 1920s and has been gradually easing since. In the current registry, it is uncommon enough to feel personal. It has appeared in U.S. birth records in nearly every decade since 1900, a genuinely long run.
