False Meaning: Julia - Girl Names

Publish date: 2024-07-22

I have found contradicting means for [name]Julia[/name]. According to nameberry, [name]Julia[/name] means youthful. According to behindthename (a site often cited by Berries), says that [name]Julia[/name] comes from [name]Julius[/name]. [name]Julius[/name] is said to means downy-beared or come from [name]Jupiter[/name] (whose exact meaning is unknown).

Questions:

  • What do you think is the correct meaning? Where did nameberry find the meaning “youthful” for [name]Julia[/name]? Perhaps because of youthful [name]Juliet[/name].

  • Are there any other names with contradicting meanings between nameberry and any other sites?

  • Is behindthename a reputable site? [name]Do[/name] you use it?

  • [name]Do[/name] you value/mind the meaning of a name?

    • Personally, I value the meaning of a name and don’t want my childs name to mean blind or lame ([name]Cecilia[/name] & [name]Claudia[/name]).

    Not trying to offend. Thanks in advance for any responses. I’m just wondering how certain are we of the meanings.
