Origin:Irish
Meaning:Fair stranger; Foreign tribe
If you're looking for something distinguished yet classic, meet Fingal. This masculine name is of Irish origin and means "fair stranger" or "foreign tribe." While it was originally a nickname for Viking invaders in Ireland, it has grown to represent so much more. 18th-century author James Macpherson chose Fingal for his valiant character in The Poems of Ossian. Fingal's adventures were loosely based on the mythological hero, Fionn mac Cumhaill. This unconventional addition to the Fin- family of names will help baby feel like one of a kind!
