Fabia is a fabulous girl’s name of Latin origin that draws inspiration from the name Fabius, meaning "bean" or "broad bean." It was also a name borne by a Byzantine empress, Fabia Eudokia, who ascended to the throne when she married Heraclius, an Eastern Roman Emperor, in 610. Her reign was said to be short-lived, but her legacy certainly wasn’t, and in her lineage are many other Byzantine emperors who’ve shaped Ancient Roman history. Something beautiful is bound to blossom for baby, and if you feel it too, Fabia is the name for you.
