Meaning: To fully deserve

Emmerentiana is a Swiss feminine name. Borrowed from the Latin word _emerentius_, it means “to fully deserve.” In Switzerland, the use of Latin led to the formation of Romansh, one of the national languages in Switzerland, giving Latin a way to live on in names like Emmerentiana. January 23rd is celebrated as Saint Emerentiana’s feast day. So if your little one debuted on this day, you can choose to pay homage to this Roman martyr by naming baby Emmerentiana. It may even inspire your child to follow your faith.
