Meloni

Meloni, a girl's name, encapsulates the meanings of "black" and "dark-skinned." Whether chosen to honor your ethnicity or reflect the mysterious beauty of a night-born baby, this Greek moniker, spelled as μελανία, stems from the words melanía, meaning "blackness," and melas, signifying "dark." Though less common in the US before 1940, it gained popularity, particularly in the 1970s. The surge in English usage of Meloni can be traced back to the 1930s, largely influenced by the widespread fame of Margaret Mitchell's 1936 novel, Gone with the Wind. Melanie Hamilton was the sister-in-law and eventual best friend of the novel's protagonist, Scarlett O'Hara. Your little Meloni will grow to be a beautiful person who cherishes friendship and embraces the richness of diversity found in every shade of life.
