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
Gina
“Gina is an Italian short form of names ending in "-gina", most commonly Luigina, Georgina, or Regina. Regina derives from the Latin "regina" meaning "queen", from "rex" (king). In Scandinavian use, Gina became popular as a short form of Georgina or as a standalone name. Its Italian roots give it a warm, Mediterranean quality that contrasts with its Germanic-Scandinavian usage contexts.”
Lauren
“Derived from the Latin Laurentius, meaning "from Laurentum" — a city near Rome whose name was associated with the laurel tree (laurus), itself a symbol of victory and honour in ancient Rome. Lauren emerged as a feminine English form in the 20th century, partly through the influence of actress Lauren Bacall, whose stage name helped popularise it.”
Manfredi
“The Italian form of Manfred, from the Old High German Manfred composed of man meaning "man" and fred/frid meaning "peace" — thus "man of peace" or "peaceful strength". The name was borne by the thirteenth-century King Manfred of Sicily, the illegitimate son of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II, whose tragic death at the Battle of Benevento (1266) was mourned by Dante in the Purgatorio.”
Mariano
“From the Latin Marianus, a Roman family name derived from Marius, itself likely from Mars, the Roman god of war, or possibly from the Latin mas/maris meaning "male". The name was borne by several Roman generals and became common throughout the Christian world partly through association with the Virgin Mary.”
Salvatore
“Salvatore is an Italian masculine name derived from the Latin "salvator" meaning "saviour" or "rescuer", from "salvare" (to save). It is the Italian equivalent of the Spanish Salvador and was used as a Christian name in honour of Jesus Christ as the saviour of mankind. The name has been prominent in southern Italian and Sicilian naming culture for centuries.”
Genziana
“From the Italian genziana, the name for the gentian flower, which in turn derives from the Latin Gentiana, named after Gentius, the second-century BC king of Illyria (modern Albania) who was said to have discovered the plant's medicinal properties. The gentian is prized in Alpine herbal medicine for its intensely bitter root, used as a digestive tonic.”
