Connie is a given name. It is often a pet form (hypocorism) of Concetta, Constance, Cornelia, Cornelius, Conor, Conrad, Constanza, Concepcion/Conception, Consuela, Consuelo, or Conner. Many Asian-American women were named after journalist Connie Chung in the 1980s even though the name was not otherwise popular at the time.[1]
