Siu

Songlike, short, and sweet: Siu is a unique choice for your little one! This feminine name has connections that stretch across the globe. As a Chinese last name, Siu has several definitions, including "leader," "harmonious," and "desolate." Siú is also the Portuguese title for the Sioux, a group of Native American peoples. The name Sioux is said to stem from naatowessiwak, an Ottawa word that translates to "little snake." In several cultures and traditions, snakes represent healing, transformation, and rebirth, so it's a lovely symbol to share with your little one. Siu could also be related to Si-U, a Korean moniker meaning "the beginning of rain" or "the start of divine protection." Even in cloudy and misty weather, your Siu will feel guided toward their next destination.
