Related names
Adriana
Latin · “Adriana is the feminine form of Adriano/Adrian, derived from the Latin Hadrianus, referring to someone from the city of Hadria (modern Adria) in northern Italy, near the Adriatic Sea. The Adriatic's name itself may derive from the Illyrian or Venetic word adur meaning "water." The name became widespread in Slavic and Romance language countries through the influence of Pope Adrian I and the Roman Emperor Hadrian.”
Tatiana
Russian · “Tatiana is a Russian and Slavic feminine name derived from the Latin Tatianus, itself from the Roman family name Tatius — of uncertain Sabine origin, possibly related to the Sabine king Titus Tatius. Saint Tatiana of Rome, a third-century Christian martyr, spread the name through Eastern Orthodox Christianity. In Russia, January 25 — Saint Tatiana's Day — is celebrated as Students' Day, as Moscow State University was founded on that date.”

Scottie
“A diminutive of Scott, from the Late Latin Scotus meaning "a Gael" or "one from Scotland" or Ireland. The Scotti were a Latin designation for Gaelic-speaking raiders and settlers from Ireland who eventually gave their name to the northern kingdom. Scottie emerged as an affectionate diminutive in English-speaking cultures.”
Felicia
“Felicia is a feminine given name derived from the Latin felix meaning "happy," "lucky," or "fortunate." It is the feminine form of Felicianus and was used in medieval Europe, particularly in Catholic countries. The name is used across Polish, Czech, Romanian, and other European traditions.”
Rufo
“From the Latin Rufus meaning "red-haired" or "red", from the root rufus/ruber related to redness. Rufus was a common cognomen in ancient Rome identifying red-haired members of a family, and was borne by several Roman historical figures. The name entered the Christian tradition through Rufus of Antioch, mentioned in Saint Paul's Letter to the Romans.”
Anthony
“From the Latin Antonius, an ancient Roman family name of uncertain origin — possibly Etruscan. A popular folk etymology linked it to the Greek anthos, "flower," but this is not linguistically supported. The name was spread across Europe by the cult of Saint Anthony the Great (the desert father) and Saint Anthony of Padua, becoming one of the most enduring Christian names in Western tradition. The H in Anthony was added in English during the 17th century under false Greek influence.”
Cesidia
“A rare Italian feminine name, possibly derived from the Latin Caesidius, a Roman family name. It may relate to the gens Caesidia, a minor Roman clan, or derive from the Latin caedo meaning "to cut, to fell", from which the cognomen Caeso developed. The name is primarily found in the Ciociaria region of Lazio, central Italy, where it has strong local tradition.”
Titus
“A Latin praenomen of uncertain origin — possibly Etruscan — used throughout the Roman Republic and Empire. Some scholars connect it to the Latin titulus ("title of honour") or to the Sabine titus ("pigeon"), though neither derivation is certain. The name was borne by the Roman emperor Titus Flavius Vespasianus and by a companion of Saint Paul mentioned in the New Testament Epistle to Titus.”
