Origin & Etymology of Romane

French · Latin

Romane comes from Latin, where it means 'from Rome; Roman'. Romane spread outward with migration, recognised now well beyond its French origin and worn across very different cultures.

Within French and Latin culture, Romane connects to enduring values through its idea of honour, dignity and high character.

How Latin names are chosen

Rome gave a child its given name at the dies lustricus, a purification held on the eighth day for a girl and the ninth for a boy. The delay was deliberate: until the umbilical stump fell away the infant was not regarded as having a separate existence, and so had no claim on a name or a fate of its own. The ceremony washed the child, presented it at the lararium before the household gods, and ended in a family feast. The praenomen given that day was only the first of the tria nomina — praenomen, nomen, cognomen — the three-part structure that marks Roman naming out from almost everything around it.
