Quinta

Meaning of Quinta

Quinta is a warm and spirited unisex name of Latin origin—its roots trace back to the classical word quintus, meaning “fifth.” Pronounced KWIN-tə, it conjures a sense of balance and creativity, like the fifth note in a melody that brings everything into harmony. In ancient Rome, Quinta was traditionally bestowed on a fifth-born child, and today it carries that noble heritage while still feeling fresh across English-speaking shores. Although it never stormed the top of the charts, Quinta quietly winked its way into U.S. classrooms and playgrounds throughout the 1980s and ’90s, appearing here and there with charming confidence. With its gentle yet bold tone, Quinta is a hidden gem—distinctive, full of promise, and ready to sprinkle a bit of magic into any family story.
