Origin of the name Juno

The name Juno dates back to ancient times. In ancient Roman myths, Juno was the goddess of love, marriage and motherhood. The merciless and cruel Saturn swallowed his daughter immediately after her birth, like other babies. Juno was miraculously saved by her surviving brother Jupiter, who later became her husband.

But Juno was not happy in her marriage. Jupiter had countless mistresses, which made his wife extremely angry. Juno was merciless to her enemies. In relation to children, she was gentle and merciful. The love and awe of the goddess knew no bounds.

Considering Juno the progenitor of all living things, the ancient Romans named the most fertile and favorable month for agriculture in her honor – June. For her sake, farmers brought generous donations to temples and prayed for a rich harvest.

Translated from Latin, Juno means “young.” The name is most widespread in the countries of Southern Europe, especially Italy.
