Ione Meaning

From Greek ιον (ion) meaning "violet flower". This was the name of a sea nymph in Greek mythology. It has been used as a given name in the English-speaking world since the 19th century, though perhaps based on the Greek place name Ionia, a region on the west coast of Asia Minor. Ione originates in Greek language and means "purple flower". In Greek mythology, Ione was the name of one of the Nereids, the sea nymphs. It is also the name of several places in the United States. As a feminine given name it has been used since the 19th century but nowadays is rather rare in the United States.
