Fulvia f

Italian and English: from the feminine form of the old Roman family name Fulvius, a derivative of Latin fulvus dusky, tawny (ultimately connected with flāvus; cf. FLAVIA (SEE Flavia)). The name does not seem to have been much used among early Christians, and there are no saints Fulvia or Fulvius. In classical times its most famous bearer was the wife of Mark Antony, who opposed Octavian by force on her husband's behalf while he was in Egypt.
