Meaning & Story
An Irish and Italian name meaning 'snow,' from the Latin 'nix/nivis,' evoking purity, quiet beauty, and a cool, serene nature.
Neve is one of those perfect short names — just four letters, effortlessly elegant, instantly evocative. In Irish, it's a variant of Niamh (the mythological golden-haired princess), while in Italian it simply means snow. For a white or silver-coated pet, Neve is an obvious and beautiful choice. But it also works for any animal with a cool, serene presence — the kind who moves through the world with quiet grace. Neve is easy to say, easy to spell, and endlessly charming.
