rosa の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語 rosa（バラ）に由来する女性名。古代ギリシャ語 rhodon（バラ）がラテン語に入り rosa となった。中世ヨーロッパでバラは聖母マリアの象徴とされ、女性名として広まった。関連語: rosary（ロザリオ、バラの花輪）、rose（バラ）。
Rosa is a feminine personal name taken from Latin rosa, meaning “rose.” The flower word spread into Romance languages, including Spanish and Italian, where rosa still means “rose,” and it became established as a woman’s name in European naming traditions. The Latin flower name has also been connected historically with Greek rhodon, though the deeper relationship is not entirely certain. English rose and words such as rosary belong to the same broad historical word family.
