Fe (FEH) is a beautiful name and I love how particularly subtle it is. Due to it being an actual word in languages such as Albanian, Basque, Catalan, Esperanto, Galician, Occitan, and Spanish, meaning "faith" / "belief" makes it a bonafide given name. The same meaning and pronunciation in Portuguese is spelled Fé. I know a Fe who, when her name is transliterated to English, pronounces it FAY. Fe has been traditionally used for girls, which in this case is similar to the Catalan unisex name Pau "peace" (traditionally used for boys) whose meaning and interchangeable pronunciation have gained momentum for both genders. Fe is among my most favourite names for either a girl or a boy.In other cases, Fe is a unisex short form for names of certain languages beginning with the same letters.
