Roman Girl Names

Roman female names originate from Latin and the naming system of ancient Rome. In classical practice, women were usually identified by the feminine form of the family name, such as Julia or Claudia, sometimes with an added cognomen. Feminine morphology commonly ends in -a, with frequent variants in -ia and -ina. Theonymic names drawn from goddesses, such as Juno or Bellona, are historically attested, as are Latinized forms created with feminine suffixes.

In modern usage, Latin-based feminine forms circulate across many languages, while mythological and archaic forms appear in revival or scholarly contexts. Contemporary spellings and compounds, including -ana and -ina variants, are also common.
