Meaning & Origin
A male given name.
Finneas is a boy's baby name of Irish origin, a variant of Phineas or Fionnuala's male counterpart, connecting to the Irish Finn (meaning 'fair, white') with the Latin -eas suffix. The name gained contemporary recognition through Billie Eilish's brother and collaborator Finneas O'Connell, who helped produce her Grammy-winning debut album.
For music-minded parents, Finneas carries the creative prestige of one of pop music's most talented producers and songwriters. It has the Celtic charm of Finn with a slightly more formal, elaborate quality — a name that sounds both ancient and very much of the moment.
