It is actually an Americanized word that was translated from Arabian Nights. The word genie was originally spelled jinn or jinnie, though those jinns were considerably less trustworthy and much more like trick or treat spirits. If the jinns of Arabian Nights ever met Aladdin's Genie, they would take him out back, mess him up, and take his lunch money. In reality, the whole concept of genie, and jinns, were the Middle Eastern way of thinking of demons, as that is what they really were. Genie is the name of a company (Genie Computer Systems) that develops and sells clinical and practice management solutions to dental, optometric, and medical clinics in Canada.
