About
Meaning
A male name. the name of a Roman gens, of which the most famous member was Caius Julius Caesar. The Romans supposed the name to be derived from Greek ίουλος ‘downy’, but there is no good evidence of this. It was first used as a christian name in Italy in the Renaissance period (Giulio), and the first instance recorded in England is Cesare Adelmare (1558-1636), a Venetian physician to Queen Elizabeth, who later dropped his patronymic, adopted the christian name of Julius, and in due course became Sir Julius Caesar.About
