Prisca
“Prisca is a Latin feminine given name meaning "ancient, venerable, primeval" — from the Latin adjective priscus. Saint Prisca (Priscilla) of Rome was an early Christian martyr, and the name appears in the New Testament in Paul's letters as Prisca/Priscilla, the wife of Aquila, one of the first Christian missionaries in Europe. As an Italian and French name it remains rare and archaically dignified.”
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.”
Luna
“Luna is a feminine given name from the Latin luna meaning "moon". In Roman mythology, Luna was the divine personification and goddess of the moon, equivalent to the Greek Selene. The name has been used in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese since the medieval period, and in the 21st century has become one of the most fashionable names across the Romance-language world and beyond.”
Maurizio
“Maurizio is an Italian masculine given name, the Italian form of Maurice, derived from the Latin Mauritius — itself from Maurus meaning "dark-skinned" or "from Mauretania" (North Africa). The name was popularized in Europe through Saint Maurice, a Roman soldier and Christian martyr executed in 286 AD, who became patron of several Italian cities. It remains a classic Italian male name.”
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.”
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.”
