Fianna

The name Fianna is often given to girls and the meaning of Fianna is 'warrior huntress'. This meaning is gotten from its Scottish and Irish origins, where traditional legends have it that the Fianna (plural for fian) were a group of freeborn who had to live in the wild, hunting, invading other people's homes and lands, training, and fighting like mercenaries before they could inherit any property and be acknowledged as landowners. In modern times, however, the name has been famously used in the phrase 'Fianna Éireann', meaning the Fianna of Ireland or likely meaning 'the isle of destiny', and also sometimes rendered 'the soldiers of destiny', which has been used as an appellation for the Irish Volunteers, in the opening line of the Irish-language version of the Irish national anthem and on the cap badge of the Irish Army. The name also has political connotations as it is used in Fianna Fáil, a conservative Irish republican political party.
