Epiphanie is the French feminine form of a name rooted in Greek epiphaneia, meaning “manifestation,” “appearance,” or “shining forth.” In Christian contexts it evokes the Epiphany, the revelation of Christ to the Magi, so the name carries connotations of insight, clarity, and unveiling. The related male form in Greek is Epiphanios, and in French Epiphane.

Usage has remained rare but persistent in France and French-speaking Canada, with occasional modern revivals.
