Lasairfhíona (pronounced Lah-sah-reena), is an Irish language female given name. The name means 'flame wine' or 'wine made from flames' as it derives from the Irish words 'Lasair' meaning flame and 'fhiona' meaning wine. The 'fh' is silent as always in Irish and spelling variations of this name also include Lasairíona.
