Monica

Origen y significado de Monica

Monica is a name of uncertain origin, perhaps from the Greek monos, 'alone, solitary,' or from a North African root. It owes its popularity to Saint Monica, mother of Saint Augustine, a model of faith and motherly perseverance — hence the two traditional senses of 'solitary' and 'adviser.' It is common in Italy, Spain and the English-speaking world, with the variants Mónica, Monika and Monique. A classic with a clear, reassuring sound.
