About this list
This list gathers names whose origin traces to Latin: the ancient language of Rome and the source of many European names. Among the most common in our data: Vincent, Lucas, Marcus. The origin describes the word behind a name, not the person who bears it; the same names are used across communities, and a name may reach Malaysia through another language. Only names whose meaning and origin are backed by a source are listed here. See all origins, and the guide to name spellings for why spellings differ.

Frequently asked questions
Are Latin names used by only one community?
No. The origin does not show anyone’s ethnicity, religion or background. We describe the name and the word behind it, nothing more.
Why do spellings here differ from the original?
Names are written in the Latin alphabet with no single official system, and sounds in the source language do not always match it one to one. Common spellings have their own page, and others are noted on it.
