Origin: Welsh

Meaning: Great queen; Goddess

Rhiannon as a girl's name is of Welsh origin meaning "great queen” or “goddess." The title stems from the mythological name Rigantona, meaning "great queen," borne by a Celtic goddess of fertility. This ethereal figure is described in legend as being dressed in shining gold—a glimmering aesthetic for any little girl. It comes as no surprise that a name this chic-sounding and melodic inspired the Fleetwood Mac song Rhiannon, making it an ideal choice for fans of the 1970s pop-rock scene.
