Phinneas is a masculine name with Hebrew origins, serving as a variant spelling of Phineas or Phinehas. The biblical Phinehas was the grandson of Aaron and known for his zealousness. The name is thought to mean 'oracle' or possibly 'mouth of brass' in Hebrew. Phinneas gained some literary recognition through characters like Phineas Finn in Anthony Trollope's novels and Phineas Fletcher in Jules Verne's 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.' This alternative spelling with double 'n' adds a distinctive touch while maintaining the name's historical gravitas. Though never extremely common, the name has experienced modest renewed interest among parents seeking traditional yet uncommon names with literary connections.
