Cleona is a feminine name with Greek and Irish roots. A variant of Cleo, this name comes from the Greek word kleos, meaning “glory” or “renown.” Of course, baby’s future is going to be rich with potential, and this name will always remind them that they’re destined for greatness. If you want to celebrate baby’s mythical side, Cleona may also come from the Irish name Clíodhna. While it translates to “shapely,” Clíodhna is better known in Irish mythology as the Queen of the Banshees and the goddess of love and beauty. Whether baby prefers to express their bright, glorious mind or spooky, mysterious spirit, the name Cleona will make for an honorable choice.
