Name Root:
ÆMŭLUS > ÆMĭLĭUS > ÆMĭLĭāNUS
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Latin “Æmŭlus > Æmĭlĭus > Æmĭlĭānus,” meaning “imitating, rivaling.” The gens Aemilia, originally written Aimilia, was one of the most ancient patrician houses in Rome. The family was said to have originated in the reign of Numa Pompilius, the second King of Rome, and its members held the state’s highest offices from the early decades of the Republic to imperial times. Emily’s name has been used as a vernacular form of the Germanic “Amelia” up to the 19th-century. Used since the Middle Ages, it was popular in the 19th-century and is once again today. Saints Castus and Emilius († 250 AD) are venerated as saints and martyrs by the Catholic Church. Saint Cyprian and Augustine of Hippo praise them. When they were imprisoned, Castus and Emilius denied that they were Christians under torture and were released.
