165 Catalan Baby Names With Meanings
Do you know what Christopher Columbus, Salvador Dali and Pablo Picasso have in common? All of them are Catalan, an ethnic group originating in the Mediterranean Spain and having roots in the indigenous Celts of the Iberian Peninsula. This Romance language from the Occidental and Vulgate Latin existed even before the Spanish language.
The Catalan culture was founded in the 9th century C.E., but it was in its heyday in the 11th and 15th centuries. There was a time that Catalans, which had some renowned explorers, sailors, and merchants, expanded their territory from the Mediterranean coast of Spain through Greece, Sicily, Naples, and the Balearic Islands. Currently, over six to eight million Catalan speakers are residing mainly in Catalunya, the semi-autonomous region in Spain. It has successfully restored its traditional culture and art, which was brutally suppressed during the Franco years.
Catalan names are quite similar to the Spanish names. The first names are hyphenated, especially if they begin with Maria or Joseph. The last names are created by joining the father’s and mother’s name and is connected with the word ‘I’.
