About Felician
Felician, a variant of Felix, originates from the Latin word "fēlix," meaning "happiness, good fortune, good luck, fertile, rich in crops and fruits." In ancient Roman culture, Felicitas was a divine personification of "blessedness" and "happiness." The goddess Felicitas represented both a woman's fertility and a general's good fortune or luck. Although Felicitas is often translated as "good luck," she was distinct from Fortuna, the goddess of fortune, in Roman religion.
