Help[Facts] Re: Finnish name (f) Inari
in reply to a message by Caitlín Malia
The first name Inari comes from the place name. The geographical name Inari comes from the original Inari Sami form Aanaar. The meaning of Aanaar is unknown.
Inari is not the only Laplandic place name that has become a given name. Other examples are Saana and Salla which are fells in Finnish Lapland.
