US Popularity Rank: 5756

Origin: Latin

Meaning: Honor

Honorine is a girl’s name of French and Latin origin. It’s a French form of Honor, from the English word “honor,” which derives from the Latin honos or honoris. This noble meaning is sure to inspire baby to always strive to do what’s right! Honor was once used as a virtue name by the Puritans, and is still used in the UK, though it remains rare in the US. However, Jessica Alba chose it for her daughter in 2008, giving this beautiful name some well-deserved attention. Honorine is an equally lovely variant, and makes a great choice if you’re looking for a name with some French flair.
