Fiorige

This name derives directly from the medieval Fiordaliso, which is linked to the rich symbolism of the floral world. Initially, it seems that the name was referring to the fiordaliso as a symbol of the royal house of France, especially in French heraldry. Etymologically, the word fiordaliso derives from the French “fleur-de-lis,” meaning “flower of a lily.” The word fleur, in turn, derives from the Latin “Flōra,” which means flower to blossom, flourish (innocence, virginity), and “lis” from the Latin “līlĭum” (lily). Flōra in Roman mythology was the goddess of flowers, gardens, and spring and guardian of the flora, an equivalent of the Greek Chloris.
