More Latin names
Giulietta
“The Italian diminutive of Giulia, from the Latin Julia — the feminine of Julius, the name of the ancient Roman gens Julia possibly from the Greek Ioulos meaning "downy-bearded" or from Iulus (Ascanius), son of Aeneas. The diminutive -etta suffix adds endearment. Giulietta is the Italian form of Juliet as used in Luigi da Porto's original 1524 novella Giulietta e Romeo.”
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.”
Delfina
“The Italian and Spanish feminine form of Delphin, from the Latin Delphinus meaning "dolphin" or "from Delphi". The dolphin (Greek delphis) was sacred to Apollo and was his symbol as the protector of sailors, believed to carry the souls of the dead to the Isles of the Blessed. Delphi, the oracle site, derives its name from the same root. Saint Delphina of Provence was a fourteenth-century Franciscan laywoman.”
Chauncey
“From the English and French surname Chauncey, derived from a place name in Normandy (Chancé or Chanteloup), possibly from the Latin calciata (paved road). The surname was borne by prominent American families, most notably the Puritan divine Charles Chauncy and his descendants, and later became a given name in American usage, particularly among the upper classes.”
Electa
“Electa is a Latin feminine name from the past participle of "eligere" meaning "to choose, to elect". It thus means "the chosen one" or "the elect" — a name with strong theological connotations in Christian naming tradition, referring to those chosen by God for salvation. It was used in Puritan naming culture in 17th and 18th-century New England, and the name Electa appears in a brief epistle in the New Testament.”
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.”
