Gabriele
“Gabriele is the Italian masculine form of Gabriel, from the Hebrew Gavri'el meaning "God is my strength", a compound of gever (strong man) and El (God). The Archangel Gabriel — divine messenger of the Annunciation — gave the name its Christian prestige. In Italy, the name is inseparable from Gabriele D'Annunzio, the flamboyant poet, playwright, and proto-fascist hero of Italian letters who dominated cultural life at the turn of the 20th century.”
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.”
Adriano
“Adriano is an Italian and Spanish masculine given name, the Italian form of Hadrian, from the Latin Hadrianus meaning "from Hadria" — referring to the city of Hadria in Picenum (northern Italy), from which the Adriatic Sea also takes its name. Emperor Hadrian (76–138 AD), one of Rome's greatest emperors and builder of Hadrian's Wall, gave the name imperial prestige throughout the Mediterranean world.”
Giuliana
“Giuliana is an Italian feminine given name, the Italian feminine form of Giuliano (Julian), from the Latin Julianus — a derivative of Julius, the ancient Roman family name possibly related to the Greek word for "soft-haired" or to Iovilius meaning "devoted to Jupiter". Saint Julian gave the name Christian prestige throughout Italy. Giuliana is the feminine counterpart of Giuliano and has been used in Italy since the medieval period.”
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.”
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.”
