Fione

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Irish

Meaning: White, fair

Fione is a bold, feminine name with a rich Irish and Scottish history. It derives from Fiona and, in turn, fionn, meaning "white" or "fair." According to legend, Fionn Mac Cumhaill earned his name thanks to his lustrious, white-blonde hair. This mythological hero is also credited with building the Giant's Causeway, in Northern Ireland, as stepping stones to Scotland. Nowadays, Fione brings to mind the feisty heroine of Shrek, Princess Fiona, known for her butt-kicking skills and tomboyish nature. Whether baby's locks are golden, red, or dark as night, they'll be just as cunning!
