    • Description:

      Theresia is a feminine name with ancient Greek and Latin origins. It's a traditional variant of Teresa or Theresa, derived from the Greek word "therizo" meaning "to harvest" or possibly from the Greek island of Thera (Santorini).

  2. Aloysia

      Aloysia is a feminine name with Latin roots, serving as the female form of Aloysius, which derived from the Old German name Chlodovech (modern Ludwig or Louis), meaning 'famous warrior' or 'renowned fighter.' With a rich European heritage, Aloysia has been used particularly in Catholic communities, owing to the veneration of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga. The name carries an elegant, classical quality with its flowing vowels and distinctive sound. While never among the most common names in English-speaking countries, it has maintained consistent usage, especially in families with German, Italian, or Spanish heritage. Aloysia offers the appealing nickname options of Loy, Loysi, or Isa.

  5. Klothilda

    • Description:

      Klothilda is a feminine name with Germanic origins, a variant of Clothilde or Clotilda. It combines the Germanic elements 'hluda' meaning 'famous' or 'loud' and 'hild' meaning 'battle', roughly translating to 'famous in battle'. The name carries historical significance through Saint Clotilda, a 6th-century Burgundian queen who influenced the conversion of her husband Clovis I to Christianity. The spelling with 'K' gives the ancient name a slightly more Germanic appearance. While popular in medieval Europe, Klothilda has become quite rare in modern times. The name has an unmistakably old-world, regal quality that evokes images of medieval European nobility and strong female historical figures.
