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.”
Rosa
“Rosa is a feminine given name of Latin origin meaning "rose", the flower. It is used across Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Catalan, where it has been a beloved name since the medieval period. Saint Rose of Lima (Rosa de Lima), the first person born in the Americas to be canonized, made the name especially popular across the Spanish-speaking world.”
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.”
Terzo
“Terzo is an Italian masculine given name meaning "third", from the Latin tertius. It belongs to the tradition of ordinal birth-order names common in Italian peasant and working-class culture — a practical system of distinguishing children that gave names like Primo (first), Secondo (second), Terzo (third), and Quinto (fifth). Such names are found across northern and central Italy, particularly in rural Emilia-Romagna, Lombardy, and Tuscany.”
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.”
Geovany
“Geovany is a variant spelling of Giovanni, the Italian masculine form of John, derived from the Hebrew Yohanan meaning "God is gracious." The unusual spelling likely reflects phonetic adaptation in Latin American communities, particularly in Brazil and Spanish-speaking countries, where creative respelling of traditional names is common.”
