Assunta
“From the Italian assunta meaning "assumed, taken up", the past participle of assumere, from the Latin ad (to) and sumere (to take). The name refers to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, the Catholic doctrine that Mary was taken bodily into heaven at the end of her life. It is one of the most distinctively Italian Catholic given names, particularly common in Southern Italy and Sicily.”
Christian
“From the Latin Christianus, meaning "follower of Christ" or "one who belongs to Christ," derived from the Greek Christos ("anointed one"), which is itself a translation of the Hebrew Mashiach (Messiah). It began as a descriptive title for early Christians and gradually became a personal name throughout medieval Europe, used for both men and women.”
Aubree
“A modern variant of Aubrey, from the Old French Auberi, from the Old High German Alberich composed of alb meaning "elf" and rich meaning "power, ruler" — thus "elf ruler" or "king of the elves". Alberich was the name of the dwarf king in Germanic mythology who guarded the treasure of the Nibelungs. The feminine spelling Aubree emerged in twentieth-century American usage.”
Andrea
“Andrea is a given name derived from the Greek Andreas, meaning "manly" or "masculine," from the Greek andros (man). While masculine in Italian and German use, it functions as a feminine name in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Czech, Slovak, and other European languages. In Slavic cultures it is primarily feminine, a form of the name linked to Saint Andrew the Apostle.”
Tony
“A diminutive of Anthony or Antonio, from the Latin Antonius — an ancient Roman family name of uncertain etymology, possibly Etruscan in origin. One influential (though not etymologically certain) derivation links it to the Greek anthos, "flower." The name was borne by Saint Anthony of Padua and Anthony the Great, cementing its importance across the Catholic world. Tony became a confident, familiar standalone name in English by the 20th century.”
Marcellus
“Marcellus is a Latin masculine name, a diminutive of Marcus, ultimately linked to Mars, the Roman god of war — thus "little warrior" or "young follower of Mars." It was a common cognomen in ancient Rome, borne by the general Marcus Claudius Marcellus who conquered Syracuse in 212 BC. In Polish and Slavic contexts the name carries a classical Roman authority.”
