Write about your first name: its meaning, significance, etymology, etc.

When I opened my eyes, my mom called me Luisa.

On documents is written “Luigia” but I preffer Luisa, it sounds better.

The origins are franco-germanic: from the German hood= glorious + wig=battle, it means illustrious warrior.🥷

Luisa or Luigia: the significance is the same. It comes from the French Louise>Luigia>Luisa and from the masculine Luigi.

It’s celebrated on March 15th, in memory of Saint Louise di Marillac, co-founder of the charity daughters, and on on June 21th in memory of Saint Luigi Gonzaga…usually the anniversary depends from the family tradition, mine is on June 21th, because my name was from my grandfather.

Character portrait of a Luisa is: rigorous and attentive woman, dissatisfied with the reality in which she lives, she wants to change it…mmm <it fits me a little>😊.

This name became famous after world war II, thanks to Giuseppe Verdi with the opera” Luisa Miller”.🎼
