Saul
“Saul is a masculine given name of Hebrew origin, from Sha'ul meaning "asked for" or "prayed for". In the Bible, Saul was the first King of Israel and later the Apostle Paul bore it as his Hebrew name. In the Spanish-speaking world, Saúl is found across Latin America as well as Spain, and the name appears in French and Italian contexts through biblical tradition.”
Rosario
“Rosario is a Spanish and Italian given name, used for both men and women, from the Latin rosarium meaning "rose garden" or "rosary" — referring to the Catholic devotion of the Rosary (Nuestra Señora del Rosario, Our Lady of the Rosary). The name is one of the most distinctively Iberian Catholic names, deeply embedded in Spanish and southern Italian religious culture, where the Rosary is central to Marian devotion.”
Alejandro
“Alejandro is the Spanish form of Alexander, from the Ancient Greek Alexandros — a compound of alexein meaning "to defend, protect" and aner meaning "man" — thus "defender of men". The name entered Spain via the Latin Alexander and underwent the characteristic Spanish consonant shift from x to j. Alexander the Great's legend, filtered through medieval romance, made the name one of the most prestigious in the Spanish-speaking world.”
Oscar
“Óscar is used in Spain and occasionally in France, adapted from the Old Norse Ásgeir or the Old English Osgar — possibly composed of os meaning "god" and gar meaning "spear", or alternatively from the Irish/Scottish Gaelic Oscar meaning "friend of deer". The name gained European currency through James Macpherson's Ossian poems (1760s), which enchanted Napoleon — who named his stepson Oscar, who became King of Sweden.”
Ismael
“Ismael is the Spanish form of Ishmael, from the Hebrew Yishma'el meaning "God will hear", composed of shama (to hear) and El (God). In the Bible, Ishmael is the son of Abraham and Hagar, ancestor of the Arab peoples. In Islamic tradition, Isma'il is a prophet and son of Ibrahim. The name is widely used in Spain and Latin America with both Christian and Islamic resonance. Melville's "Call me Ishmael" made it famous in English.”
Bibiana
“Bibiana is a feminine given name used in Spanish and Italian, a variant of Viviana, from the Latin Vivianus — derived from vivus meaning "alive, living". The name was borne by Saint Bibiana (Viviana), a 4th-century Roman Christian martyr whose remains were enshrined in the Basilica di Santa Bibiana in Rome. The Roman church dedicated to her was rebuilt by Gian Lorenzo Bernini under Pope Urban VIII in 1624–1626.”
