What is the meaning of the name Romanas ?

Romanas is Lithuanian in Origin.

Romanas is the Lithuanian masculine form of Latin Romanus, meaning “Roman” or “of Rome.” The name spread throughout Christian Europe via the veneration of early saints and martyrs named Romanus/Romanos, as well as the famed hymnographer Romanos the Melodist, and entered Baltic usage through centuries of contact with Slavic and Polish naming traditions.

In Lithuania it has been recorded since at least the 19th century and became familiar in the 20th, used across Catholic and secular communities. Common variants include Roman (English, German, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian), Román (Spanish, Hungarian), Romāns (Latvian), Romano (Italian), Romanos (Greek), and the scholarly Latin Romanus; the feminine counterpart is Romana. Lithuanian diminutive/short form Romas is frequent. The enduring appeal of Romanas lies in its classical heritage and straightforward meaning: a person of Rome - connoting civitas, strength, and cultural lineage.
