Paola
“Paola is the Italian feminine form of Paul, from the Latin Paola — feminine of Paulus meaning "small, humble". It is one of the most classic Italian feminine names, used across all regions of Italy. Saint Paula of Rome (347–404), a wealthy Roman widow who became Jerome's collaborator in Bethlehem and founded monasteries there, gave the name early Christian prestige. It remains a timeless staple of Italian feminine naming.”
Giuliano
“Giuliano is an Italian masculine given name, the Italian form of Julian, from the Latin Julianus — a derivative of Julius, possibly related to the Greek word for "soft-haired" or to Iovilius meaning "devoted to Jupiter". The name carries in Italy the shadow of Giuliano de' Medici, younger brother of Lorenzo the Magnificent, murdered in the Pazzi Conspiracy of 1478 in Florence Cathedral — one of the most dramatic events of the Renaissance.”
Roberta
“Roberta is the Italian and Spanish feminine form of Robert, from the Old High German Hrodebert composed of hrod meaning "fame" and beraht meaning "bright" — thus "bright fame". The name entered the Romance languages via the Normans and Germanic medieval aristocracy, and in Italy became firmly established as a classic feminine name, especially in the 20th century.”
Tosca
“Tosca is an Italian feminine given name derived from Tosca, a word for a woman from Tuscany (Toscana), from the Latin Tuscia — the region of the Etruscans. The name became world-famous through Giacomo Puccini's opera Tosca (1900), based on Victorien Sardou's play, in which Floria Tosca is a passionate Roman opera singer whose love and courage lead to tragedy. Before Puccini, Tosca was rarely used as a given name.”
Angela
“Angela is a feminine given name derived from the Latin angelus, from the Greek angelos meaning "messenger" or "angel". The name entered the Romance languages through the Christian tradition, where angels were God's divine messengers. Saint Angela Merici, founder of the Ursuline order in 16th-century Italy, was one of the name's most influential bearers.”
Rosalino
“Rosalino is an Italian and Spanish masculine given name, a masculine form of Rosalina, itself derived from Rosa (from the Latin rosa meaning "rose") combined with the Germanic element lind meaning "soft, tender, flexible". It is found especially in southern Italy and in some Spanish-speaking communities. The name combines the floral beauty of Rosa with the Germanic -lind suffix that passed into the Romance languages through medieval naming.”
