HelpRe: Fiona
in reply to a message by Lisa007
I once loved it. Then Fiona Apple came on the scene, and I dropped it to "like".. then Shrek. So much for that. I also found out it does not have the authentic prn "FEEna" -- believing it did had given it tons of charm, for me. FeeOHna sounds a bit weird.
Anyway, I still like it; I just wouldn't use it myself.
off-the-cuff mn suggestions:
Fiona Charmaine
Fiona Ursula
Fiona Iola
Fiona Miranda
Fiona Hermione

Fiona doesn't have the authentic pron. FEE-na ... but, confusingly, the Irish name Fíona does :-S It's sometimes spelled Fina, to clarify that.

Yes, that's what I said - it does not have that prn :-)
A great source on Fiona:

It also seems to suggest that the Irish name Fíona is possibly a modern invention in reaction to Fiona.
