The most beautiful, smart, fun loving, easy to love, girl. The girl you will never forget about, and always want.  when she doesn’t mean to. She will love you with all her heart and is just the best girl ever. No matter how much you are around every time feels like the first and you always get butterflies. Easily the best girl you’ll ever find.
  • Hey man remeber that girl you dated?
  • Who Courtney? I’ll never forget that love man.

Assuming that you are talking about the name, here is some background about it:

The name Courtney has an Old French origin. It came from France to the UK after the Norman Conquest of 1066. If it is the last name (family name of someone), they probably have roots from the regions of Loiret and Gâtinais in France. Some people might have Irish background, as Courtney is an Anglicized version of the name “O’Curnain”. That points out someone who is from Curnan, a name that comes from Gaelic.

As for the meaning about the name, Curnan comes from the Latin curtus meaning “short” or else from a Norman nickname meaning “short nose”. Chances are that people who are given this name by their parents now are chosen because they like the sound of the name or naming them after someone, rather than calling them or their nose short.
Note also that both men and women can be Courtney, although most people who are named Courtney now are girls.
