Imogene

Imogene is an English variant of the Celtic name Imogen, which means 'maiden'. This name first gained attention in Shakespeare's play 'Cymbeline', though it is often remembered as Imogen due to a reported printing error. Imogene was quite popular in the United States during the early 20th century but has since become more of a rarity. Its vintage feel makes it appealing for those who appreciate names that are both classic and slightly off the beaten path. Nicknames like Immy or Genie add to its warm, inviting appeal. While not frequently encountered today, Imogene has the potential to stand out in the best possible way.
