Why is there a double F at the beginning of the name?

One thing is her coming out as trans, but welsh!!!

[–] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 88 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's a Welsh name. Ff is pronounced like F in English, while F is pronounced like V

It's like they were drunk when they learned English, and just kind of ran with it 😂

Its commonly seen on the UK. I think it's the Welsh variation.

It's not that common, I can't remember meeting any Ffions in nearly 40 years.

I've met loads. But then again I work in an industry with a huge number of service users and staff movement. And I've worked quite close to Wales for a long time too.

Makes sense. I can't help but pronounce it f-fion in my head.

idk, might make sense in the language

Same way folks portmanteau “Ccat” for Catty/cute + cat.

Just Welsh bethau.
