The Scottish Gaelic feminine name Fionnghal (and variants) is sometimes equated with Fiona. In ninth-century Welsh and Breton language 'Fion' (today: 'ffion') referred to the foxglove species and is also a female given name as in Ffion Hague.Fiona was the 49th most popular name for baby girls born in 2008 in Germany.
