Character Name
Libbie
Libbie Libbie has the warm informality of the Victorian nickname tradition — a name that strips the scriptural weight from Elizabeth and replaces it with the intimacy of the family circle and the frontier community. The Elizabethan Hebrew root of divine abundance persists beneath the diminutive form, giving a character named Libbie access to considerable inner resource despite the modest, familiar exterior. It suits protagonists of the American West or Victorian domestic world whose unpretentious exterior conceals extraordinary inner life.

More Latin names
Antonia
“The feminine form of Antonius, the name of the distinguished Roman patrician gens whose etymology may derive from the Etruscan Antun, possibly from the Greek anthos meaning "flower". Antonia was the name of two daughters of Mark Antony and was a common name among Roman imperial women, most famously Antonia Minor, grandmother of the Emperor Caligula.”
Sabrina
“From the Latinized form of Hafren, the ancient Welsh name for the River Severn, Britain's longest river. The Roman geographer Tacitus recorded the river's Latin name as Sabrina. According to Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britanniae, Sabrina was a drowned princess who became the river goddess of the Severn, making the name one of the oldest named female figures in British legend.”
Danuta
“A Polish feminine name, possibly a diminutive of Dana or Daniela, from the Hebrew Daniel meaning "God is my judge", composed of din (judgment) and El (God). Alternatively it may derive from a Slavic root. The name is distinctively Polish and became internationally known through Danuta Wałęsa, wife of Solidarity leader Lech Wałęsa.”
Graziella
“An Italian diminutive of Grazia, from the Latin gratia meaning "grace, favor, thanks" — the word that gives English its "grace" and "gratitude". Gratia in Roman culture referred to the exchange of favor and goodwill that structured social relationships, while in Christian theology it became the central concept of divine gift freely given. The diminutive form Graziella adds tenderness to the concept.”
Fausto
“From the Latin Faustus meaning "auspicious, lucky, bringing good fortune", derived from favere meaning "to be favorable". Faustus was a common Latin cognomen and given name in ancient Rome. The name became inseparable from the German legend of Doctor Faustus after Marlowe's and Goethe's treatments, transforming "the fortunate one" into the archetype of fatal ambition.”
Jillian
“An elaborated form of Jill, itself a medieval diminutive of Juliana, the feminine form of Julian, from the Latin Julianus derived from Julius. Julius was the name of the ancient Roman gens Julia, possibly related to the Greek Ioulos meaning "downy-bearded" or derived from the divine ancestor Iulus (Ascanius), son of Aeneas. The Gens Julia claimed descent from the goddess Venus.”
