What is the meaning of the name Antonietta ?

The baby name Antonietta is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced Italian: /an.toˈnjɛt.ta/ (ahn-toh-NYET-tah).

Antonietta is Italian in Origin.

Antonietta is an Italian diminutive of Antonia, formed with the affectionate suffix -etta. Antonia itself is the feminine of the Roman family name Antonius, probably of Etruscan origin and thus of uncertain meaning; by long-standing tradition within Christian Europe it has been glossed as “priceless” or “of inestimable worth.”

The name has flourished in Italy - especially in the south - since the 18th century, buoyed by devotion to Saint Anthony of Padua and by royal usage (Maria Antonietta is the Italian rendering of Marie Antoinette, and several Bourbon princesses bore the name). Cultural bearers include the painter Antonietta Brandeis, the soprano Antonietta Stella, and the child mystic Venerable Antonietta “Nennolina” Meo. Variants and cognates include Antonieta (Spanish/Portuguese/Catalan), Antoinette (French), Antonina and Antonella (Italian/Slavic relatives), with diminutives Toni, Tonia, Etta, Netta, and Ninetta.
