Reply to: Meaning of the female first name Junia? by Lucille
Junia is the female of the latin family name Junius from the Roman goddess Juno, Queen of the Gods and wife of Jupiter. Hence the month and name June. It is also a place in India.
N.B. In the New Testament Junia was, arguably, a female apostle (Romans 16:7).
