Meaning & History

Perhaps from Latin quintanus "fifth-ranking", from quintus "fifth" (see QUINTUS) or a transferred use of the surname. In today's English-speaking world it is sometimes perceived as a feminine form of QUINTIN or QUENTIN.

The American writer Joan Didion named her daughter Quintana Roo.
