Mercurius is a Latin name for boys that has ties to Roman mythology. The inspiration for the name Mercury, Mercurius may bring to mind the Roman god of merchants, travelers, and trade. He is similar to the Greek god Hermes, sharing his winged feet swagger and acting as a messenger between gods and mortals. Stemming from the Latin mercari or merces, Mercurius aptly means “trade,” “buy,” “wages,” and “merchandise.” Whether you’re going for a bazaar or bourgeois vibe, Mercurius' adventurous heart and savvy chime may inspire your child to stay open to all kinds of opportunities. After all, “a wise man can hear profit in the wind.”
