Sixtine

  • [ - ]
  • French
French feminine form of SIXTUS.

SIXTUS   male   Late Roman
Latin form of the Greek name Ξυστος (Xystos) meaning "scraped, polished". This name was borne by five popes. The first pope by this name was the sixth to serve after Saint Peter, so there is a possibility that this name is in fact derived from Latin sextus "sixth".
