Undene

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Latin

Meaning: Little wave

Undene is a girl’s name of Latin origin. As a variant of Undine, it means “little waves.” In European folklore, Undines are believed to be nymphs or the spirit of the waters. They are believed to be the inspiration behind Friedrich de la Motte Fouque’s fairytale novella Undine, which in turn was the basis of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid. If your little one belongs to one of the water signs, naming them Undene would be like a sweet homecoming. And who knows, it may even inspire them to surprise everyone and make a big splash!
