Ante is Croatian in Origin.
Ante is a masculine given name most common in Croatia and neighboring South Slavic regions. It stems from Latin Antonius via Croatian forms Antun, Anton, and Antonio, and functions both as a standalone name and a familiar short form. The ultimate meaning is uncertain - Antonius is likely of Etruscan origin - though it is often folk-etymologized from Greek anthos “flower,” a connection scholars reject. Croatian name days typically fall on 13 June (St. Anthony of Padua) and 17 January (St. Anthony the Great).
The name has been well documented in Dalmatia and along the Adriatic from early modern parish records to the present, buoyed by Catholic devotion to St. Anthony. Variants and related forms include Anto, Antun, Anton, and Antonio; common diminutives are Toni, Tonći, and Tono. Cognates span Anthony, Antoine, Antoni, and Anton. In a separate tradition, Sámi Ánte/Ante corresponds to Anders (Andrew), from Greek Andreas “manly.”
