Ortensia
“Ortensia is an Italian feminine given name, the Italian form of Hortensia — from the Latin Hortensii, the name of the Roman plebeian gens, possibly derived from hortus meaning "garden". Hortensia, the daughter of the orator Hortensius, was celebrated in ancient Rome for her eloquence. The name entered Italian as Ortensia and is associated with the hydrangea flower (ortensia in Italian), giving it additional floral associations.”
Alberto
“Alberto is the Italian and Spanish masculine form of Albert, from the Old High German Adalbert composed of adal meaning "noble" and beraht meaning "bright, famous" — thus "nobly bright" or "illustrious noble". It was a name of Germanic aristocracy that spread across Europe with the Carolingian and later Holy Roman Empire traditions. In Italy and Spain, Alberto has been a classic masculine name since the medieval period.”
Cesare
“Cesare is the Italian masculine form of Caesar, from the Roman family name whose origin is disputed — possibly from the Latin caesaries meaning "head of hair" or related to a caesarean birth. Julius Caesar made the name synonymous with absolute power, and Cesare Borgia (1475–1507) — son of Pope Alexander VI, military commander, and Machiavelli's model for The Prince — gave the Italian form its most dramatic historical embodiment.”
Amedeo
“Amedeo is an Italian masculine given name from the Latin Amadeus, composed of amare (to love) and Deus (God) — meaning "one who loves God" or "beloved of God". The name was carried by the royal House of Savoy — the dynasty that unified Italy — through numerous princes and kings named Amedeo/Emanuele. It is inseparable in cultural memory from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, though in Italy the name is distinctly Savoyard and Piedmontese.”
Elena
“Elena is the Italian and Spanish form of Helen, from the Greek Helene — possibly from helene meaning "torch" or related to helios meaning "sun", or from a pre-Greek word. Helen of Troy gave the name immortal literary status; in Italy and Spain, Saint Helena (Elena), mother of Emperor Constantine, gave it Christian prestige. It is one of the most widespread feminine names across the Romance world.”
Angelo
“Angelo is an Italian masculine given name from the Greek angelos meaning "messenger" — the Greek translation of the Hebrew mal'akh meaning "messenger of God". In Italy, Angelo has been one of the most widely used masculine names since the medieval period, carried by popes, artists, and saints. Michelangelo (Michele Angelo) combines the name with that of the Archangel Michael, and the name is embedded in Italian culture at the deepest level.”
