Hieronymus

The name Hieronymus originates from the Latinized Ancient Greek name Hieronymos. The meaning of Hieronymous is ‘sacred name’ or ‘saved’. This name was inspired by the life of one of the great Fathers of the early Christian Church, Saint Jerome who lived between 347 and 420 AC. Together with other Catholic Saints, St Jerome translated the Christian Scriptures from Hebrew and Greek into Latin, which we now know as The Vulgate Standard Latin Version of the Bible. Hieronymus is typically a boy’s name and it is similar to the name Jerome. Even though it has Latinized Ancient Greek roots, the name is also present in Old German and Dutch.
From its Greek-Latin elements, the element 'hieros' has the meaning of 'sacred' and the element 'onyma' at the end of the word adds the meaning ‘name’.
