Alejandro
“Alejandro is the Spanish form of Alexander, from the Ancient Greek Alexandros — a compound of alexein meaning "to defend, protect" and aner meaning "man" — thus "defender of men". The name entered Spain via the Latin Alexander and underwent the characteristic Spanish consonant shift from x to j. Alexander the Great's legend, filtered through medieval romance, made the name one of the most prestigious in the Spanish-speaking world.”
Bibiana
“Bibiana is a feminine given name used in Spanish and Italian, a variant of Viviana, from the Latin Vivianus — derived from vivus meaning "alive, living". The name was borne by Saint Bibiana (Viviana), a 4th-century Roman Christian martyr whose remains were enshrined in the Basilica di Santa Bibiana in Rome. The Roman church dedicated to her was rebuilt by Gian Lorenzo Bernini under Pope Urban VIII in 1624–1626.”
Manuela
“Manuela is the Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian feminine form of Manuel, itself derived from the Hebrew Immanuel meaning "God is with us," composed of im (with), anu (us), and El (God). The name carries deep biblical resonance as the name given to the prophesied Messiah in Isaiah. It is common in Latin American and southern European cultures, and appears occasionally in Slavic regions.”
Luis
“Luis is the Spanish form of Louis/Ludwig, from the Old Frankish Chlodovech or Hludowig, composed of hlud meaning "fame" and wig meaning "warrior" — thus "famous warrior". It entered Spanish through the French Louis and became one of the most enduring masculine names in Spain and Latin America, borne by kings, saints, and countless literary figures.”
Linda
“In Spanish and Portuguese, linda simply means "pretty" or "beautiful," making it a straightforward word-name. However, as an English name it more likely developed as a feminine suffix form attached to names like Belinda or Melinda. The element -linda in Germanic names derives from the Old High German lind, meaning "soft," "gentle," or "serpent." Linda exploded in popularity across the English-speaking world in the 1940s and 1950s.”
Penelope
“Penelope is a feminine given name of Greek origin from the Homeric Penelopê, whose etymology is uncertain — possibly from pene meaning "thread on a bobbin" (relating to the famous weaving) or from a pre-Greek root. In Homer's Odyssey, Penelope is the faithful wife of Odysseus who waits twenty years for his return, unraveling her weaving each night to delay her suitors. Her name became the archetype of conjugal fidelity.”
