What does Riannon mean?

The name Riannon is commonly a female name from the "Welsh" origin.

Riannon is a spelling of Rhiannon, the Welsh name of a woman who appears in the Middle Welsh prose tales collected as the Mabinogion, chiefly in the First Branch, Pwyll Prince of Dyfed. The standard Welsh form begins with Rh, and the spelling without the initial H is a later, non-Welsh rendering of the same name rather than a separate name with its own meaning.

Rhiannon means "Sorceress. Sacred Queen and Goddess of the witches, fairies and of horses. Mythical daughter of Hefeyedd.".
