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.”
Jade
“From the Spanish phrase piedra de la ijada, meaning "stone of the flank" or "loin stone," because the gemstone was thought to cure colic and kidney ailments when placed on the abdomen. The word passed into English via French jade. The stone itself — prized across Asia, Mesoamerica, and the Mediterranean — has long been associated with purity, good fortune, and protective power.”
Jaime
“Jaime is the Spanish and Portuguese masculine form of James (and Jacob), from the Hebrew Ya'akov meaning "supplanter" or possibly "may God protect" — via the Latin Jacobus. The name is widely used across Spain and Latin America and carries the authority of the biblical patriarch Jacob and the Apostle James (Santiago). Jaime I of Aragon (the Conqueror, 1208–1276), who conquered Mallorca, Valencia, and Murcia, made the name celebrated in Iberian history.”
Soledad
“From the Spanish soledad, meaning "solitude" or "loneliness," derived from the Latin solitudo.

The name is primarily used in Spanish-speaking countries and among Hispanic communities.”
Eduardo
“Eduardo is the Spanish and Portuguese masculine form of Edward, from the Old English Eadweard composed of ead meaning "wealth, fortune, prosperity" and weard meaning "guard, protector" — thus "wealthy guardian".

It is widely used across Spain, Latin America, and Portugal.”
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).
