About Uljana
The origin of the name Uljana is shrouded in uncertainty. One theory traces its roots to the Late Latin term "Iūlius," meaning "youth." Another suggests a connection to the Latin and Proto Indo-European deity "Jupiter," the supreme god known as the King of the Gods and God of sky and thunder.
A third possibility stems from the Ancient Greek word "Íoulos," which signifies "haired" or "bearded." In Roman tradition, the name was considered "sacred to Jupiter." The Roman clan Julia, one of the oldest Patrician families, played a prominent role in the republic's early history. The fifth month of the Roman calendar, Quintilis, was renamed Julius in honor of Julius Caesar, who was born during that month.
