Quiritta is in Origin.

Quiritta is a rare modern feminine name shaped from the Latin Quirin- stem, seen in Quirinus and Quirina, names tied to the Roman god of civic life. In classical sources, Quirinus is associated with Romulus and the body of Roman citizens (Quirites); the underlying Sabine root is often glossed as "spear" or "citizen." By extension, Quiritta carries meanings such as "of the citizens," "spear-bearer," or "guardian of the community," with the -itta ending lending an Italianate, affectionate nuance.

Usage appears sporadically in late-20th and 21st-century records, typically as an inventive elaboration or diminutive of Quirina. Variant forms and spellings include Quirita, Quiretta, and Quiritta; related names are Quirina (f.), and Quirin/Quirino/Quirinus (m.). Possible nicknames: Qui, Rita, Ritta, and Quita. Its rarity and crisp consonants make Quiritta an uncommon choice that still connects to deep Roman roots.
