Vicente

US Popularity Rank: 1288

Origin: Portuguese

Meaning: To conquer

Love Vincent, but you’re looking for something Spanish-sounding to spice it up a little? Vicente is one sweet selection to consider! Traditionally given to boys, this Spanish and Portuguese name originates from the Latin expression vincere. Meaning “to conquer,” its translations already speak of triumph. But figures like Vicente Fox, the 62nd president of Mexico, and Nobel laureate Vicente Aleixandre will definitely remind your little one just how well their name lives up to its medal-worthy etymologies.
