julia の語源・成り立ち Etymology

ラテン語の女性名Juliaに由来し、古代ローマの名門氏族名Julius(ユリウス)の女性形。Juliusはギリシャ神話の主神ゼウスの息子Iulus(イウルス)に遡るとされる。英語のJuly(7月)も同族で、Julius Caesarにちなむ。

Julia comes directly from Latin Julia, the feminine form of Julius, an ancient Roman clan or family name. The ultimate origin of Julius is uncertain, so proposed links to particular mythological names or meanings should be treated cautiously. The name spread widely through Roman history, Christian tradition, literature, and later European naming practices. July belongs to the same historical name family because the Roman month Quintilis was renamed Julius in honor of Julius Caesar, giving English its modern month name.
