Lavenia

A variant of Lavinia, Lavenia is a feminine name with an air of elegance, majesty, and historic renown. Though its exact meaning has been lost to time, Lavenia likely honors a certain figure in Roman mythology. The wife of the Trojan hero Aeneas, Lavinia was the daughter of a king who is often seen as an ancestor of the Roman people. Her husband, Aeneus, is said to have named the ancient city of Lavinium after her, though some sources suggest that both Lavinia's name and the place name Lavinium honored her father, King Latinus. If you're a keen student of William Shakespeare's earlier work, you'll recognize Lavinia from his experimental tragedy Titus Andronicus. With its e spelling and delightful sound, Lavenia writes a new story for a moniker that has captured hearts for millennia.
