Meaning & History

The first element of this name is derived from either the Arabic noun فن (fann) meaning "art, skill" (compare Irfan) or the Persian noun فن (fann) meaning "science, knowledge, learning". The second element is derived from the Arabic noun نور (nur) meaning "light". As such, one could say that the meaning of this name is roughly "art brings light" or "science enlightens".
