Félicien Origin and Meaning
The name Félicien is a boy's name.
Félicien is a French masculine name derived from the Latin 'felix,' meaning 'happy' or 'fortunate.' This elegant name carries a sense of joy and optimism. While relatively uncommon in English-speaking countries, it has maintained steady usage in French-speaking regions, particularly in Quebec, France, and parts of Africa. The name has historical connections to several saints, including Saint Félicien of Foligno, a 3rd-century martyr. The accent mark gives the name a distinctly French character, emphasizing its cultural heritage and sophisticated sound.
