Antimus is a rare masculine name and Romansh form of the Latin Anthimus. Derived from the Greek Anthimos, Antimus celebrates your child's inevitable growth and success with meanings like "of flowers," "like flowers," "blooming," "flowering," and "flourishing." Romansh is considered Switzerland's fourth language and dates back to around 15 BC, but as time moves on, fewer people speak this ancient language. A blend of Vulgar Latin and Rhaetian, the native tongue of the area before Roman colonization, Romansh holds history in every word. If you'd like to celebrate baby's Swiss-Romansh heritage or simply help keep this beautiful language alive, Antimus does both in a very eloquent way.
