Punier

Punier is a proper noun used occasionally as a surname and, in fictional contexts, as a place name. It is also the lowercase form of the English adjective punier, the comparative of puny.

The etymology of Punier as a surname or toponym is not clearly documented in widely available sources. It may derive from regional toponyms in Europe or reflect historical phonetic variants of other names. The usage remains rare and localized.

In genealogical and bibliographic contexts, Punier appears only infrequently, with no widely recognized figures bearing the name. The term is more commonly encountered as a fictional toponym in novels, games, and other media, where it designates towns, regions, or districts within imagined worlds.

In standard English, punier denotes 'more puny' and should not be confused with the capitalized proper noun.
