More Latin names
Sylvester
“Sylvester is a masculine name derived from the Latin silvestris meaning "of the forest" or "wooded," from silva meaning "forest" or "wood." It was the name of Pope Sylvester I (314–335 AD), who reigned during the conversion of Emperor Constantine the Great, and Saint Sylvester's feast day on December 31st gives the name its association with New Year's Eve in many European countries.”
Lavada
“An American coinage likely derived from the Spanish lavada meaning "washed" or "cleansed", from lavar (to wash), itself from the Latin lavare. Alternatively it may be a variant of Lavinia, the ancient Latin name of the wife of Aeneas. It emerged as a given name primarily in the American South during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.”
Dante
“An Italian short form of Durante, from the Latin Durantus/Durans meaning "enduring, steadfast", the present participle of durare meaning "to harden, to endure". The name's extraordinary cultural weight derives entirely from the Florentine poet Dante Alighieri (1265–1321), whose Divine Comedy remains the supreme work of Italian literature and one of the foundational texts of Western civilization.”
Clara
“From the Latin clara, the feminine form of clarus meaning "clear, bright, famous". The name was popularized by Saint Clare of Assisi (Chiara), the thirteenth-century founder of the Order of Poor Ladies, who chose a life of radical poverty following Saint Francis. The name has been borne by queens, scientists, and heroines across European history.”
Patrick
“Patrick derives from the Latin "Patricius", meaning "nobleman" or "of patrician rank", from "pater" (father) and the suffix denoting social class. Saint Patrick, the 5th-century Romano-British missionary who became the patron saint of Ireland, was born Maewyn Succat but adopted the Latin name Patricius upon entering the church. Through his legacy, Patrick became the defining masculine name of Irish Catholic tradition.”
Patience
“From the Latin patientia meaning "endurance, suffering, forbearance", derived from patiens (the present participle of pati meaning "to suffer, to endure"). The word entered English as both a virtue and a name during the Protestant Reformation, when Puritan communities favored names drawn from abstract virtues as spiritual declarations.”
