More Latin names
Santo
“From the Latin sanctus meaning "holy" or "consecrated", the past participle of sancire meaning "to make sacred". The word formed the basis of the Christian concept of sainthood and was widely adopted as a given name in Catholic Southern Europe, especially in Italy and Spain, as a direct expression of religious devotion.”
Tristian
“A variant spelling of Tristan, from the Celtic name Drustan (or Drystan), related to the Pictish personal name, possibly from the Celtic root meaning "noise" or "tumult". The name was later associated by medieval writers with the Latin tristis meaning "sad", reinforcing the tragic character of the legend. Tristan is the hero of one of the great medieval romance cycles.”
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.”
Herminia
“The feminine form of Herminio/Herminus, from the Latin Arminius, the name of the Germanic tribal leader who destroyed three Roman legions in the Teutoburg Forest in 9 CE. The Latin Arminius possibly derives from the Germanic Irmin, an Irminic deity or heroic figure, related to the Proto-Germanic erminaz meaning "great, strong, whole".”
Jayde
“A modern variant of Jade, from the Spanish piedra de ijada meaning "stone of the flank", as jade was believed to cure kidney ailments. The stone's name entered English through Old French. Jade has been treasured in Chinese, Mesoamerican, and Māori cultures for millennia as a symbol of purity, wisdom, and protection.”
Viola
“Viola is a feminine given name derived from the Latin "viola", the word for the violet flower. It entered widespread use in medieval Italy and gained international fame through Shakespeare's heroine in "Twelfth Night", a witty noblewoman who disguises herself as a young man named Cesario.”
