feminine · Italian origin
Enza is an Italian feminine given name that originated as a short form of names ending in the suffix -enza, most notably Vincenza, the Italian feminine form of Vincent, which derives from the Latin Vincentius and the root vincere, meaning to conquer. It can also function as a diminutive of Lorenza or Credenza, among other names sharing the same ending. The name is used predominantly in southern Italy and has remained a quiet but steady presence in Italian naming tradition. Vincenza and Vincenzo are its closest related forms.
