Lumikki

Lumikki is the Finnish term for Snow White. In Finnish-language translations of the fairy tale and its adaptations, the character Snow White is commonly named Lumikki.

Beyond its role as a character name, Lumikki is used as a feminine given name in Finland. It is relatively uncommon but established among Finnish names, reflecting the country’s tradition of using nature‑ or fairy‑tale‑inspired names.

In media and literature, Lumikki may appear as a fictional character that channels Snow White’s archetype or as a direct reference to the tale. The usage emphasizes winter imagery and fairy‑tale association.

Etymology: The word is a compound built from lumi, meaning snow, with a suffix that occurs in Finnish names. The combination conveys a “snowy” identity and aligns with Snow White symbolism.
