More Latin names
Adrian
“Adrian is derived from the Latin Hadrianus, referring to someone from the city of Hadria in northern Italy (modern Adria), whose name may come from the Illyrian or Venetic word adur meaning "sea" or "water." The name became prominent through the Roman Emperor Hadrian, who built Hadrian's Wall in Britain, and through Pope Adrian I. It is widely used in Polish, Czech, Slovak, and other Slavic countries.”
Paula
“The feminine form of Paul, derived from the Latin "Paulus" meaning "small" or "humble". The name was borne by Saint Paula of Rome (347–404), a wealthy Roman widow who became a close companion of Saint Jerome and founded monasteries in Bethlehem, making the name prestigious in the early Christian world. It became common in Germany, Scandinavia, and across Latin Europe.”
Daija
“A modern American coinage, likely a variant spelling of Deja, derived from the French déjà as in déjà vu meaning "already seen" — from the Latin jam (already). It may also be influenced by the Yoruba name Deja or by other African American naming traditions that create new forms through phonetic creativity. The name emerged in American usage in the late twentieth century.”
Josiah
“From the Hebrew Yoshiyahu meaning "Yahweh supports, heals, or delivers", composed of Yo (a form of Yahweh) and sha'ah meaning "to support, to lean upon, to heal". King Josiah of Judah (640–609 BC) was celebrated in the Hebrew Bible as one of the greatest reforming kings, who rediscovered the Book of the Law and conducted a sweeping religious reformation.”
Jaqueline
“A variant spelling of Jacqueline, the French feminine form of Jacques, itself the French form of James/Jacob. James derives from the Late Latin Jacomus, an alteration of Jacobus, from the Hebrew Yaakov meaning "supplanter" or "holder of the heel" — from the story of Jacob grasping Esau's heel at birth. Jacqueline became an aristocratic French name borne by queens and noblewomen.”
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.”
