Meaning & History

Oscan praenomen as well as a Roman nomen gentile. The latter is derived from the Oscan praenomen, but is often mistakenly thought to come from the Latin adjective novus meaning "new, fresh, young".

Bearers of this name include the Roman dramatist Quintus Novius (1st century BC) and the Roman senator Decimus Junius Novius Priscus (1st century BC).
