The name carries philosophical overtones, suggesting completion and fulfillment. Though uncommon, Finis offers a distinctive classical quality with its Latin derivation and meaningful etymology.

For parents drawn to names with clear meanings and historical depth, Finis presents an uncommon option with significant symbolic resonance.
