Comments for HORTENSIA:
Spelled Hortenzia in Hungarian.-- alberto 12/5/2004
Hortenzia is also a Romanian name for girls. In fact, we know that is a flower name. Hydrangea macrophylla (Hortenzia), also called bigleaf or French hydrangea, has either pink or blue flowers.-- oanaq 9/23/2005
"Hortensia" is a shrub with very big blossoms (there are a lot of possible colours of these flowers). "Hortensia" could have a nameday on Palm Sunday. Palm Sunday (the Sunday before Easter) is the day of flowers and willows (the names of the other trees also have a nameday).-- iva_toneva 6/6/2006

I've also seen the name spelled as Hortencia in Spanish.-- DanielAndres 12/29/2006
I pity the children with this name.-- nothingshortoftragic 12/30/2006
Ortenzia Caviglia (whose last name means "ankle" in Italian) is the "heroine" of The Blue Aspic, a story by Edward Gorey. She is an opera singer who is utterly unscrupulous in her efforts to further her career. She gets her just deserts at the hands of a crazed fan.-- Kosta 3/22/2007
This sounds like some pompous elite name from 200 years ago, and the first syllable would cause serious problems to girls in English-speaking countries. This is one of the ugliest names I've ever come across.-- slight night shiver 6/2/2008
I think this name is a beautiful name, and is far better than Hortens, but I think it would be better as a second name, just because of the childish connotations of the prefix of this name that people may pick up on. Unfortunately, I think we live in a very childish society, it's a terrible shame for names like Hortensia. But for all the sensible people out there, great for a second name. :)-- walesgal92 4/25/2009
Well... it has a lovely meaning. I like gardens.-- Chrila96 12/3/2010
Not a famous person, but this is Donald Duck's mother's name in Swedish.-- Beautiful Victory 5/8/2011
It seems Hortuculture would be a related word. It's pretty enough. No the best, but I like the meaning.-- Bazinga 1/13/2012
