It is believed that in ancient days Chinnavedampatti was predominant by Brahmins. The area was known for its enchantments about vedic mantras. Hence the area was initially known as Vedampatti, which means Place of Veda. Since the number of families were very less, people added Chinna (which means small) before the name of the place. Then it became Chinna + Vedam + Patti (Small Place of Veda) = Chinnavedampatti.
