Nepali baby names starting with F, with meanings

F is a small group in Nepali naming, and every name here is written with फ, the breathy p that can also stand in for ph. This page lists 25 baby names starting with F, with 21 suited to boys and 5 to girls. Each comes with its meaning and, where it helps, its Devanagari spelling.

  1. One letter behind them all

    Every name in this list opens with फ, whether the English spelling begins with F or Ph. Fanindra is फणीन्द्र, and Ful is फूल.

  2. Flower names

    Ful means a flower or blossom, something fresh and beautiful in nature. Fulmaya means flower love, one as lovely as a flower.

  3. One name, several spellings

    Firoj, Firoz and Feeroj are all written फिरोज and mean victorious, and also the turquoise stone. Francis, Francish, Frank and Franco all mean free one.

Baby names starting with F and what they mean

Faizan (फैजान) means grace, abundance and generosity, a flow of blessings. Fanindra means king of serpents, the serpent Shesha. Firoj means victorious and successful, and also the turquoise stone. Farhan means happy and cheerful, while Faiyaz means generous and bountiful. Farjana means wise and learned. Ful means a flower or blossom. See the full F names list for the rest.

F letter names and their spelling variants

Firoz and Feeroj carry the same meaning as Firoj, so the choice is really about spelling. Francis means free one, and Franco and Frank are the Italian and English forms of the same name. Farooque means one who distinguishes right from wrong. Fulmaya means flower love, one as lovely as a flower. If you are naming a son, the boy names starting with F page gathers those choices in one place.

Tips for parents

  • Because फ is used for both F and Ph in English spellings, treat the English form as a choice and check the Devanagari you want on the certificate.
  • Firoj, Firoz and Feeroj are one name in three spellings; settle on one before school admission forms arrive.
  • Ful and Fulmaya are simple nature names, but Fulmaya carries the extra word for love, so the two feel quite different.
  • Say a short name like Ful with your surname, since one syllable can sound very clipped next to a long family name.
