Chionia Name meanings & History

From the Greek word "chion" meaning snow; White as snow; Pure. Variant of Chione. This was the name of a virgin martyr and saint who lived during the reign of the Roman emperor Diocletian. She was burned to death in Thessalonica (which is nowadays Thessaloniki in Greece) in 304 AD, together with her (also virgin) sisters Agape and Irene. Her name, which literally means "snow" in Greek, is sometimes said to figuratively mean "purity" (probably as in: as pure as snow). Chionia is a unique and uncommon name that may appeal to parents looking for a rare and meaningful name for their daughter.
