Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Slovenská podoba mena súvisí s latinským rímskym rodovým menom Virginius, staršie a historicky lepšie doloženým v podobe Verginius. Jeho pôvodný význam nie je spoľahlivo objasnený; spojenie s latinským virgo, v genitíve virginis, „panna“, je pravdepodobne neskorším ľudovoetymologickým výkladom.
