Gender Feminine

Meaning & History

Medieval Basque name, first documented in 1276.

Its exact origin and meaning are uncertain, there is however a theory that it might be a feminine form of Orti (which itself was first recorded in 1043). If that were the case, that would make Orta the Basque form of Fortuna.
