Fleur Pronunciation

What Fleur means
Where Fleur comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Fleur comes straight from the French word for flower, and behind it stands the Latin flos, in its stem form floris. The same root feeds English 'floral' and 'flourish', and the heraldic fleur-de-lis of the French crown. The meaning is plain: flower. In Polish, kwiat.
John Galsworthy gave the name to Fleur Forsyte, a central figure across his Forsyte novels of the 1920s. Later readers met Fleur Delacour, the French witch in the Harry Potter books. Both bearers are French or French-tinged, which fits how the name travels.
Poland has no imieniny fixed for Fleur. A girl named Fleur on a class register carries a French word among Polish ones. The name stays singular. It has no diminutive of its own, no cross-gender twin. What you get is the whole word: flower, and its Latin stem floris.
