Etymology, origin and meaning of name Roxane

Roxane is a feminine given name that has two origins: the first is Iranian and the second is Latin. In Iranian, the first name meaning "Dawn" and which can still be linked to the meaning of "shining" like "Aurora", has its roots in the term "Roxan". In Latin, Roxane is derived from the word "Regina" which translates to "Queen". However, you should know that other historians find it a third origin which would come from Persia.

According to them, Roxane was the first name par excellence of the wife of Alexander the Great. Attached to the brilliant history of the conqueror of Macedonia, this first name has been mentioned several times in great literary and historical works. After the death of the wife of Alexander the Great, Roxana disappeared from use in the 6th century. It was not until the Renaissance era that it reappeared to become more democratic in the world, especially in the Mediterranean regions.

When do we celebrate Saint Roxane? What day ?

September 7 is the day dedicated to celebrating the first name Roxanne throughout France. We do not miss the opportunity to honor the Holy Queen in particular.
