Meaning & Origin of Fenix
Meaning: The mythical phoenix bird, a symbol of renewal.
Origin: Greek (via Latin, spelling variant of Phoenix).
A common claim: Widely said to mean 'rising from the ashes.' Actually: That's the phoenix myth (the bird's death-and-rebirth story), not the literal word origin; 'phoenix' is usually traced to a Greek word for purple-red or to 'Phoenician,' not to an 'ashes' root.
