Phoebe or Phœbe (/ˈfiːbi/ FEE-bee;[1] Ancient Greek: Φοίβη, romanized: Phoíbē) is a female name, the feminine form of the male name Phoebus (Φοῖβος), an epithet of Apollo meaning "bright", "shining", and “pure”.

In Greek mythology, Phoebe was a Titan associated with the power of prophecy as well as the moon.

A certain Phoebe also appears in Paul the Apostle's Epistle to the Romans in the New Testament, a female minister in the church at Kechries near Corinth.

Phereby and numerous phonetic spellings of the name are variants of Phoebe that developed in the American South.

Phoebe Buffay, a main character on the American television series Friends, which aired from 1994 to 2004, helped popularize the name.
