Saturnia is Latin in Origin.
Saturnia is the Latin feminine form of Saturnius, literally "of Saturn" or "belonging to Saturn." In Roman literature it functions as an epithet meaning "daughter of Saturn," most famously for the goddess Juno (Vergil calls her Saturnia), and by extension evokes the Saturnian Golden Age of peace and plenty associated with the agricultural god Saturn. Classical poets also used Saturnia tellus, "the Saturnian land," for Italy, giving the name a cultured, mytho-poetic aura.
As a given name, it is rare, though it endures in place names such as Saturnia in Tuscany and appears in natural history as the silk-moth genus Saturnia. Usable modern variants include Saturnina (Spanish, Portuguese, Italian); related masculine counterparts are Saturnin (French), Saturnino (Spanish/Italian/Portuguese), and Saturninus (Latin). Possible short forms are Nia, Ria, or Turi. Overall, Saturnia suggests lineage, cyclical time, and rich harvest.
