Horatia is a girl’s name of Latin origin. Taken from the Roman family name Horatius, which comes from the Latin term hora, Horatia means “hour,” “time,” and “season”—perfect for any punctual parent. Horatio was also borne as a middle name by 19th-century novelist Juliana Horatia Ewing, who dedicated her life to children’s literature. If your little Horatia hasn’t heard of A Flat Iron for a FarthingSix to Sixteen, or Daddy Darwin’s Dovecot, it might be time to tell them a few tales!
