Capture the beauty of the island’s coastal towers and mighty mountains with Sicilian girl names. Plucked from the ruggedly stunning island off the coast of Italy, these names are hardly wallflowers, choosing instead to stand tall and march ahead through life. Meet some of them with us to better understand the region’s monikers.
The island has been home to many famous figures that make amazing Sicilian girl names. This includes several saints, including Agatha of Catania, Lucy of Syracuse, and Olivia of Palermo. Plenty of beloved poets hail from the land, too, like Nina Siciliana, Nicoletta Pasquale, and Helle Busacca. Others have musical connections, including Romina, Oriana, and Francesca.
Popular Sicilian girl names include Maria, Giuseppa, and Rosa. Many lean solidly Italian, like Vincenza, Grazia, and Antonina, while others are more religious due to the island’s deep Roman Catholic roots, including Rosaria and Teresa. The names range in styling, too, with long, frilly finds like Antonella and Sebastiana available in abundance along with a sprinkling of shorter sweethearts like Vita and Ada.
Our favorite Sicilian stunners are those with incredible meanings. Allegra is a “cheerful” darling, as is the “delight” Gioconda. Sparkle with the “jade” Giada, or become smitten with the “beloved” Erasto. We can’t miss the ultra-cute Bellini, either. Meaning “little beautiful one,” she’s surely special.
Sicilian girl names can also be places, from the region’s name, Sicily, to its volcano, Etna. Capture water vibes with Messina, as in the Strait of Messina and the seaside village bearing the name, or venture into the mountains with Enna, a city sweetheart who sits in the center of the island. Catania is another city find, meaning “grater.” Found near Mount Etna, she’s a picturesque place with a long history. Vittoria is another treasure, with this village tucked into the Ragusa province. For more mountainous vibes, see Madonie, as in the Madonie mountain range found in the northern area of the island. Sure, she’s uncommon as a name, but she’s an interesting alternative to the mega-popular Madison, plus she may have ties to your roots.
Take an adventure with more Sicilian girl names on our complete list.
