“Ignacio is the Spanish form of Ignatius, from the Latin Ignatius — possibly derived from the Latin ignis meaning "fire", though the name may be of Etruscan origin predating its folk-etymology connection to fire. Saint Ignatius of Antioch (c. 35–108) and Saint Ignatius of Loyola (1491–1556), founder of the Jesuits, gave the name its immense prestige in the Catholic and especially Spanish world.”

The Roman church dedicated to her was rebuilt by Gian Lorenzo Bernini under Pope Urban VIII in 1624–1626.”
