Boniface

The name Boniface refers to 'well-doer', and it is of English origin. In Latin, the name is derived from the word 'bonifatius’, meaning 'good fate', composed of the elements 'bonum', translating to 'good' and 'fatum', translating to 'fate'. Therefore, the meaning of Boniface is 'fortunate, good fate'. The name can be traced back to Saint Boniface, a leading figure during the eighth century, who played a role in the Anglo Saxon mission to Germanic parts of the Frankish Empire. He was greatly responsible for the foundations of the church in Germany and held the position of Archbishop of Mainz. He is also often known as the apostle of Germany for strengthening the roots of Chiatianity in the country. H.
