Name for 14th February- Titus
Roman praenomen, or given name, which is of unknown meaning, possibly related to Latin titulus “title of honour”. In the New Testament Titus was a companion ofSaint Paul. He became the first bishop of Crete and was the recipient of one of Paul’s epistles. This name was also borne by a 1st-century Roman emperor. It was later used by Shakespeare for the main character in his tragedy ‘Titus Andronicus’ (1593). As an English name, Titus has been occasionally used since theProtestant Reformation. (behindthename.com)
nameberry.com– Slightly forbidding Roman, New Testament, and Shakespearean name brought back to contemporary life by the TV series Titus 2000. Could possibly be swept along by the antiquity trend.
