Manon was actually put on my radar through the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas (IYKYK). It was such a beautiful and interesting name that I had to look at it deeper. In French, it is pronounced “ma-NOHN” and it means “little Marie” but other meanings include “beautiful queen” and “beloved.”
Though having a soft and feminine cadence, she also carries strength and presence. She’s a woman who demands your attention. She is chic confident, and effortless. She’s an absolute powerhouse.
