What is the meaning of the name Yuliia ?

The baby name Yuliia is a girl name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced YOO-lee-yah.

Yuliia is Greek, Latin, Ukrainian in Origin.

Yuliia is the standard Ukrainian romanization of Юлія, the local form of Latin Iulia. Iulia was the feminine of Iulius, the nomen of the Roman Julian gens; in strict Latin usage it identified a woman belonging to that family. The older etymology links Iulius with Greek ioulos, down, first beard, giving the traditional sense youthful or downy, though the Roman family name itself is the secure starting point.

Through Christian and classical transmission, Iulia/Julia spread across Europe, with Slavic forms adapting j or iotated sounds: Ukrainian Юлія, Russian Юлия, Polish Julia, Croatian and Slovene Julija. Yuliia reflects Ukraine’s official transliteration system, so it is common in passports and English-language records for Ukrainian bearers. The name is visible in modern Ukraine, including politician Yuliia Tymoshenko, while in the United States this spelling remains uncommon beside Julia.
