Fiona
Fiona is a feminine given name. It was invented and first used by the Scottish poet James Macpherson (1736–96), author of hid Ossian poems which he claimed were translations from ancient Gaelic sources (sources, when challenged, he never produced). The name was subsequently used as a pseudonym by William Sharp (1855–1905), who authored several romantic works under the name "Fiona Macleod". The name has since become popular in England, Scotland and Ireland.
