Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Julija je južnoslovanská a východoslovanská podoba latinského mena Iulia, ženského tvaru rímskeho rodového mena Iulius. Presný pôvod mena Iulius nie je celkom istý; tradične sa spája s rímskym rodom Iuliovcov, preto je najbezpečnejší význam „príslušníčka rodu Iuliovcov“.
