“Encarnación is a Spanish feminine name derived from the Catholic feast of the Incarnation (La Encarnación), commemorating the moment when God became flesh in the person of Jesus. From the Latin incarnatio, "act of being made flesh". It is a distinctly Iberian religious name, especially common in Andalusia and other devout regions of Spain, often shortened to Encarna.”
Teresa
“Teresa is a feminine given name of uncertain but likely Greek origin, possibly from the Greek theresia meaning "harvester" or from the island of Thera (Santorini). It became enormously popular across the Catholic world through Saint Teresa of Ávila (1515–1582), the Spanish mystic, Doctor of the Church, and author of The Interior Castle, and later through Saint Thérèse of Lisieux. It is used across Spanish and Italian.”
Soledad
“From the Spanish soledad, meaning "solitude" or "loneliness," derived from the Latin solitudo. It is used as a given name in honour of the Virgin Mary under her title Nuestra Señora de la Soledad ("Our Lady of Solitude"), who represents Mary's grief after the Crucifixion. The name is primarily used in Spanish-speaking countries and among Hispanic communities.”
Juana
“Juana is the Spanish feminine form of Juan, itself derived from the Latin Iohannes, from the Hebrew Yochanan meaning "God is gracious". It became one of the most common names in the Spanish-speaking world, borne by queens and saints alike. Its most famous historical bearer is Juana I of Castile, known as "Juana la Loca".”
Jose Manuel
“José Manuel is a Spanish compound masculine given name combining José (from the Hebrew Yosef, "God will add") and Manuel (from the Hebrew Immanu'el, "God is with us"). Double names of this type represent the Spanish tradition of honouring two saints simultaneously, and José Manuel is one of the most classic Iberian combinations, widespread across Spain and Latin America since the 18th century.”
Ainhoa
“Ainhoa is a Basque feminine given name taken from the name of a village in the French Basque Country (Lapurdi), itself from the Basque ainhoa meaning "fertile slope" or possibly from a root related to "Our Lady of Ainhoa", a Marian shrine there. The name gained popularity throughout Spain and the Basque Country in the late 20th century and has become one of the most beloved Basque feminine names, both in the Spanish Basque Country and in the French Pays Basque.”
