Plant a seed for a beautiful tomorrow with the name Saturnin. You’ll find Saturnin in languages like French, Gascon, Provençal, Russian, and Polish, giving plenty of opportunity to honor baby’s heritage. This masculine moniker derives from the Roman Saturninus and Saturn, possibly of the Latin root serere. The meaning “to sow” is a worthy theory, given that Saturn is the name of the Roman god of agriculture. Saturnin’s link to the cosmos is instantly recognizable thanks to the planet Saturn and its magnificent rings. Like a seed buried in the soil so it can reach for the sky, baby Saturnin can grow up feeling connected to the earth and the stars.
