About Fenix
Fenix is a spelling variation of the place name and mythological name Phoenix, possibly inspired by the Romani form, Fennix, or the Spanish Fénix. Derived from Greek and meaning "dark red", the phoenix is an immortal bird that, having lived for a number of centuries, would be consumed by fire and rise from its own ashes.
Associated with rejuvenation and fresh starts, the traditional Phoenix has proved popular throughout the 2000s, while Fenix has been more quietly used, given to around 75 boys and 20 girls each year.
Pronounced FEE-niks.
As of October 2026, Fenix ranked #2013 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #1988 in 2021.
