This is an article about a given name. For ancient Roman names, see Roman naming conventions.

Roman is a masculine given name that originated within the Roman Empire, via Latin and sequentially the Greek language. In its initial sense, the title "Roman", (Romanus in Latin and Romanos in Greek) denotes a member of the Roman Empire, or belonging to or identifying with Roman (or Byzantine) culture.[1][2] It most likely evolved from Romulus, the legendary co-founder of Rome.[3] It can also be an ancient Germanic given name, derived from Proto-Germanic *Hrōþi- "famous" and *mann "man" (Hrōþimannaz). It's sometimes also used as a literal translation of the name Robert.
