Alba Meaning
This name is derived from two distinct names, Alba , with distinct origins, Latin and Germanic. Over time these names have become confused with one another. To further complicate the matter, alba means "dawn" in Italian, Spanish and Catalan. This may be the main inspiration behind its use in Italy and Spain. Alba originates in Latin language and means "fair, white". It is a feminine form of Albus. Some sources also suggest that it is simply derived from a Spanish word for "sunrise". It functions as a surname as well, the famous bearer being the American actress Jessica Alba.
