Mignonne Origin and Meaning

The name Mignonne is a girl's name.

Mignonne is a feminine name of French origin meaning 'dainty,' 'cute,' or 'sweet.' Derived from the French word 'mignon' (meaning darling or delicate), it embodies femininity and charm. This elegant name carries sophisticated French flair while conveying qualities of grace and delicacy. Though rare in English-speaking countries, Mignonne occasionally appears in French-speaking regions and among Francophile families. The name has a distinctly romantic, artistic quality that might appeal to parents seeking something uncommon yet culturally rich. Its pronunciation (meen-YOHN) adds to its exotic appeal in English-speaking contexts. Mignonne connects to a tradition of French names that emphasize feminine grace while remaining relatively unique in most contemporary naming landscapes.
