Origin: Latin

Meaning: Roman goddess of the woodlands, fields, and flocks; Young deer

Faune is a gorgeous girl’s name of Latin origin. Although it means “young deer,” its rule and reign reach far beyond the animal kingdom. Fauna, Faune’s alternative form, is the name of the Roman goddess of the woodlands, fields, and flocks. Known never to leave her grove, it was her commitment to her calling that made her a praiseworthy power. May your little Faune be imbued with a similar sense of loyalty towards Mother Nature, learning to nurture her creation as it nurtures us.
