Meaning, origin and history of the name Virginia - Behind the Name
https://www.behindthename.com/name/virginia
Meaning
Feminine form of the
Roman family name
Verginius or Virginius, which is of unknown meaning, but long associated with Latin virgo "maid, virgin". According to a legend, it was the name of a
Roman woman killed by her father so as to save her from the clutches of a crooked official.This was the name of the first
English baby born in the New World:
Virginia Dare in 1587 on Roanoke Island. Perhaps because of this, the name has generally been more popular in
America than elsewhere in the English-speaking world, though in both
Britain and
America it was not often used until the 19th century. The baby was named after the
Colony of
Virginia, which was itself named for
Elizabeth I, the Virgin
Queen. A more recent bearer was the
English novelist
Virginia Woolf (1882-1941).
