Franny

Feel free to choose this adorable baby name. While most commonly associated as a girl’s name, Franny is actually a fabulous, gender-neutral choice of Latin origin. Perfect for Francophile parents, Franny means “from France,” and derives from names like Frances or Fran. Plus, with the secondary meaning of “free man,” little Franny is sure to feel emboldened to follow their heart no matter what country they are in. Notable namesakes include documentary director Franny Armstrong, keyboardists Franny Griffiths, and writer Franny Choi. Book lovers will also recognize this name’s connection to the J.D. Salinger classic Franny and Zooey—also giving parents a great name option for any siblings that baby Franny might have!
