Genevia Origin and Meaning

The name Genevia is a girl's name.

Genevia is an uncommon feminine name that appears to be a variant of Geneva. It likely shares origins with Geneva, which comes from the name of the Swiss city, derived from the Celtic word "genawa" meaning "mouth" or "estuary." Genevia has a romantic, slightly antique quality with its flowing syllables and melodic sound. The name has never been widely used, remaining a rare choice throughout recorded naming history. With its similarity to both Geneva and the popular name Genevieve, Genevia offers a distinctive alternative that carries echoes of European elegance while maintaining a unique identity that sets it apart from more common names.
