Febe Origin and Meaning

The name Febe is a girl's name.

Febe is primarily a feminine name derived from the Greek name Phoebe (Φοίβη), meaning "bright" or "pure." In Greek mythology, Phoebe was a Titaness associated with the moon and prophecy, and the name was later mentioned in the New Testament as a Christian woman in the early church. Febe represents the spelling used in several European languages, including Italian, Spanish, and Dutch, where the 'ph' in Phoebe is replaced with 'f' following local phonetic patterns. While less common than the Phoebe spelling in English-speaking countries, Febe offers a simplified, international variation with the same classical origins. The name has a gentle, flowing quality with its two syllables and soft consonants.
