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.”
Penelope
“Penelope is a feminine given name of Greek origin from the Homeric Penelopê, whose etymology is uncertain — possibly from pene meaning "thread on a bobbin" (relating to the famous weaving) or from a pre-Greek root. In Homer's Odyssey, Penelope is the faithful wife of Odysseus who waits twenty years for his return, unraveling her weaving each night to delay her suitors. Her name became the archetype of conjugal fidelity.”
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.”
Rodrigo
“Rodrigo is the Spanish and Portuguese form of Roderick, from the Visigothic name Hrodric composed of hrod meaning "fame" and ric meaning "power, ruler" — thus "famous ruler". The name is particularly associated with Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, the 11th-century Castilian knight known as El Cid, one of the greatest heroes of Spanish literature and history.”
Francisca
“Francisca is the Spanish and Portuguese feminine form of Francisco (Francis), from the Latin Franciscus meaning "Frankish man" or "free man from France" — originally a cognomen of Saint Francis of Assisi (1181/82–1226), whose baptismal name was Giovanni but who was nicknamed "il Francesco" (the little Frenchman) by his father. Saint Francis made the name globally beloved, and Francisca became a classic Iberian feminine name.”
Isabel
“Isabel is the Spanish and Portuguese form of Elizabeth, a medieval Iberian variant of the Hebrew Elisheba meaning "my God is an oath" or "my God is abundance". The name was borne by two of history's most powerful women: Queen Isabel I of Castile (1451–1504), sponsor of Columbus's voyages, and her granddaughter Isabel of Portugal. It is one of the most prestigious and beloved names in the Spanish-speaking world.”
