Fiona Name Details

The name Fiona is of Scottish origin and is derived from the Gaelic word 'fionn', meaning 'fair' or 'white'. It became popular as a given name in the late 19th century, possibly due to its association with the protagonist Fiona Mackenzie in the novel 'The London Scottish' (1876) by John Lewis. Fiona has since become a widely used name for girls in English-speaking countries.
