Meaning not yet researched.

We publish a meaning only with a cited source and a confidence label, and never generate one. Meanings are being researched for the most common names first.

Wikidata records this spelling as a given name in Italian. That is where the name is used, not necessarily where it comes from.

Related spellings

Numbers are all-time US births. Links come from Wikidata’s “said to be the same as” (P460, CC0) and our spelling rule: at most two letters different, with the same sound pattern.
