I've always wondered, haha.
Plus, do you like the name Marie?

Bonnie is the actual Scottish term for "pretty." ;) Not technically short for anything.
It could, however, be used as a nickname for Bonita, Bellona, Bethany, Bianca, Bronwen, Bryony or some other similar formal name, if one is desired. ;)
Hope that helps.
Ps. I do like Marie, but actually prefer another form (Mary, Maura, Moira, Mairenn, etc.). A fine name, but a bit too "filler middle name" for my taste, though I love the variants mentioned.

I don't think that Bonnie is a short form of anything... I like Marie, but it is really over used.

I have known two Bonnies. Their names were Bonnie, not short for anything.
I love Marie.

It's actually a word that is Scottish in origin meaning attractive or pretty. A "bonnie lass" in Scotland is a pretty girl.

Bonnie is generally not a diminutive of any other name and is of Scottish origin meaning attractive or pretty.

It can be a stand alone name or it can be short for Bonnita.
