Etymology, origin and meaning of name Garance

The name Garance is quite rare. It comes from the Revolutionary Calendar. Garance comes from the name of a plant in the Rubiaceae family that grows in warm temperate regions. They are identifiable by their red roots which are widely used in dyeing. On the other hand, the madder color was that of the regulatory uniform trousers in the French army at the beginning of the 20th century. This color was noticeable too easily by the enemy and therefore had to be exchanged for horizon blue.

This first name became known in particular thanks to the film "Les Enfants du Paradis" released in 1945 and directed by Marcel Carné. The first name Garance particularly stood out with this dialogue: "They call me Garance. It's pretty. It's a red flower. Red like your lips..."

This first name is of Arabic and Latin origin, derived from "flos" and it means "flower".
