Help[Facts] Re: Ovidia
in reply to a message by pistachio
If I had to guess, I would say that Ovidia is Roman female name.
In ancient Rome, men had 3 names. In Ovid's case, it was Publius Ovidius Naso. Women got their names from their fathers' middle names. So if Ovid had a daughter her name would have to be Ovidia.
