Fyona Origin and Meaning

The name Fyona is a girl's name.

Fyona is an alternative spelling of Fiona, a feminine name with Scottish Gaelic origins. The traditional Fiona derives from the word "fionn" meaning "fair, white, or pure." This variant spelling with a 'y' gives the classic name a more distinctive, modern twist while maintaining the same melodic pronunciation. In Celtic mythology, the name is associated with beauty and fairness. Fyona carries the same romantic, slightly mystical quality as its more common counterpart, evoking images of Scottish highlands and Celtic traditions. While considerably less common than the standard spelling, Fyona appeals to parents seeking a unique variation on a recognizable name. The name has a gentle strength and timeless elegance.
