Antia is a feminine name whose roots disperse through several Greek and Latin origins. As a Greek name, Antia comes steeped in compliments for your little seedling. Meaning “flower” or “blossom” as a form of Anthea, and “highly praiseworthy” from Antonius, Antia fits like a vibrant flower crown. Antia is also the surname of a family who lived during the Roman Empire, from Antius, but whether or not it was a form of Antonius remains a mystery.
