Januarius

Whether it’s a new year or a new day, little Januarius will be ready to embrace every opportunity, experience, or connection that comes their way. A masculine title, Januarius has Latin roots and refers to the first month of the year, “January.” If you’ve ever wondered where the month of January gets its name, the answer can be found in Januarius' second meaning, “of Janus.” As the Roman god of gateways, archways, and beginnings, Janus was the inspiration behind the title of the first month of the Gregorian calendar. While January may have been known as the “month of Janus” throughout history, baby Januarius will know it as the month when they are celebrated!
