Quentin = Fifth People often ask me about - what does my name mean. Sometimes, I also ask other peoples if his or her name means something. These are not important but it is good to know about each other in our cultures of mankind. For my friends who want to know, the meanings of (Western) given names:
Men’s Names (Q)
Quentin: (Latin) The fifth
Quincy: (Old French-Latin) Quintus’ estate
Women’s Names (Q)
Queenie: (Old English) Wife of a king
