Geneviève is a French feminine given name, derived from the Germanic elements 'genos' meaning kind, race, or tribe, and 'wulf' meaning wolf. It translates to 'of noble (or gentle) birth'. The name gained popularity in France during the Middle Ages due to several early saints named Geneviève. Notable figures bearing this name include Geneviève Aïtoff, a French film director, and Geneviève Guichard, a French politician.
The name Geneivee was popular around the early to mid-20th century, with a total of 243 babies named Geneivee between 1913 and 1962. The name's popularity peaked in the years 1922 (with 13 births) and 1926 (also with 13 births). However, it is worth noting that there were no recorded births with the name Geneivee between 1940 and 1952, indicating a decline in popularity during those years.
