[Facts] rennie
well often nicknames are given as first names, so the meaning of Rennie could be the meaning of Rendell.
It could be a short form of any name beginning with ren, most likely Renard or Renaud, if its not Rendell.
Also the name Renie is in the database, so maybe its just Renie with an extra 'n'
ask your husband if he might of been named after someone with an 'ren' beginning name.
Also the nickname Renie, or Rennie is often given to people whos names end with 'ren' or an 'ren' sound.
There are lots of those, so its best to find out if he was named after someone.
Best of luck~Silver (SD)

I immediately thought of the Jalna books, set in the 19th-century Canada. Renny was one of the main characters, a charming & handsome man. The books were quite popular here in Northern Europe in the 50s, and as a result, a number of boys were baptised Renny. (One of them was the Finnish-born Hollywood director Renny Harlin.)Also, Renne is French meaning "deer, reindeer".
