Origin: Italian

Meaning: Dedicated to Mars

The Italian Marzia comes from a long line of names that stem from the Latin Mars. As a choice for girls, Marzia awakens baby’s inner warrior with its meaning “dedicated to Mars.” Mars is the Roman god of war and protector of Rome, who fathered Romulus and Remus—the mythological founders of this ancient civilization. Likened to the Greek god Ares, Mars has a more reserved and tactical nature and is much better at keeping his temper in check. An eye-catching and ear-perking alternative to Marcia, baby Marzia is sure to make this plucky name their own.
