Fallen Origin and Meaning

The name Fallen is a girl's name.

Fallen is an uncommon feminine name that has emerged in contemporary naming. It likely developed either as a variant of Fallon (an Irish surname meaning 'leader' or 'superiority') or as a word name from the English term. As a modern choice, Fallen has a certain mysterious, ethereal quality that might appeal to parents seeking something unconventional. The name carries complex associations - while it could evoke images of autumn leaves or fallen snow, it also has religious undertones of imperfection or descent. This duality gives the name a unique depth and potential for personal interpretation. While relatively rare as a given name, Fallen offers a distinctive sound that balances familiarity with originality.
