Meaning & Story
A feminine name of Germanic origin meaning 'peaceful ruler', the Italian and Spanish form of Frederica, derived from Friedrich.
Federica has the elegant sweep of an Italian opera heroine—commanding, beautiful, and full of passionate feeling. It's a name that requires a certain confidence to choose for a pet, and that confidence is always rewarded with a companion who absolutely lives up to the grandeur of her name. A pet named Federica tends to be a natural leader with impeccable style: she enters a room and everyone notices. The name works wonderfully for a sleek, sophisticated animal—a greyhound, a Siamese cat, or any creature with natural elegance. Magnificently, unapologetically herself.
