Origin:
germanic
Name Root:
frankô / *franka > FRANK
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Medieval Latin “Francus / Franciscus,” meaning “Franco, belonging to the people of the Franks.” In turn, the name derives from the Germanic “*frankô / *franka,” meaning “javelin, spear.” Ultimately the name is a derivative of the Proto-Germanic “*sahsą,” meaning “knife, dagger.” The Franks, in the Middle Ages, were the only ones who enjoyed the rights of free citizens; the term “frank” means “free man, sincere or true.” The term can be associated with the baptismal name since the ninth century. Originally it refers to a Germanic people who derived their tribal name from a type of ax they used in the past. The Francisca (or Francesca) is a throwing ax used as a weapon during the early Middle Ages by the Franks, among whom it was a typical national weapon at the time of the Merovingians from 500 to 750 known to have been used during the reign of Charlemagne (768-814). Francis of Assisi was an Italian Catholic friar and preacher. He founded the men’s Franciscan Order, the women’s Order of St. Clare, and the Third Order of Saint Francis, for men and women not able to live the lives of itinerant preachers, followed by the early members of the Order of Friars Minor or the monastic lives of the Poor Clares.
