About the name: No, there's no special meaning behind "Mia." We thought it was short and sweet, and works well when she's small and later on in life. It's Italian for "my," of course, but honestly, we just picked it because we liked the sound of it.

"Ffion" is pronounced "fee-on." Think "freon," without the carcinogens. The name is a Welsh variation of Fiona, but translated directly it's the word for the foxglove, a pretty, but poisonous, wildflower found all over England and Wales, and in some U.S. states. Do not mess with Ffion.
