The baby name Venus is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced ˈviːnəs (VEE-nus).
Venus is Latin in Origin.
Venus derives from Latin Vēnus (genitive Veneris), the name of the Roman goddess of love, beauty, and fertility, etymologically tied to the Proto‑Indo‑European root *wen- “desire, love, strive for.” The name carries meanings such as “desire,” “charm,” and “beloved,” and is indelibly linked to the brilliant planet visible as the morning or evening star.
Used as a feminine given name in Europe since the Renaissance, Venus surfaced in English and Italian records under the influence of classical art and mythology, then saw sporadic 19th‑century revival and wider late‑20th‑century recognition - helped by tennis champion Venus Williams. The standard English, Spanish, and Portuguese form is Venus; variants include Italian Venere, French Vénus, Turkish Venüs, and Slavic Venera (Russian/Serbian/Bulgarian Венера). Related nicknames include Vee and Vena. The name’s aura is mythic and glamorous, balanced by a crisp, modern sound.
