Quintille Origin and Meaning

The name Quintille is a boy's name of French origin.

Quintille is a rare masculine name with Latin origins, derived from 'quintus' meaning 'fifth.' In ancient Rome, it was traditionally given to the fifth child or to boys born in the fifth month of the Roman calendar (July). The name carries an aristocratic, scholarly quality with its classical roots. Quintille represents a more elaborate variation of the more familiar Quintin or Quintus. Despite its historical connections, Quintille remains exceptionally uncommon in modern usage, making it a distinctive choice for parents seeking a name with classical elegance and historical depth. The name's mellifluous sound and unique character offer a sophisticated alternative to more common Q-names while maintaining clear pronunciation and spelling.
