Iggy

Iggy or Iggie is mostly a female name and it is often a short form of the Roman Latin names Ignatia (feminine) and Ignatius (masculine), or their derivatives in other European languages. As such the name is derived ultimately from the Etruscan language family name Egnat, the meaning of which is unknown. A spelling with an initial "I" later became dominant, possibly because of a resemblance to the Latin word ignis "fire".
