Ferdinanda

Celebrate baby’s inner explorer and adventurer by naming them Ferdinanda. If you’ve ever read about the life of legendary Portuguese navigator Ferdinand Magellan, this moniker will seem even more familiar! Ferdinanda is a feminine variant of Ferdinand, with both names sharing the same Germanic origins. The Gothic element nanths, meaning “bold” or “brave,” takes center stage in this name. When combined with other elements, including farthu, meaning “voyage,” or frithu, meaning “peace,” Ferdinanda takes on the meanings “bold voyager” or “brave in peace.” These two name definitions could help baby Ferdinanda map out a future filled with exciting experiences and courageous leaps of faith.
