A type of white wine or a female given name; also refers to Saint Genevieve, the patron saint of Paris in medieval Christian tradition.
Derives from the Latin 'Genovefa,' possibly from Germanic roots. Saint Genevieve (died around 500 CE) was a French saint known for defending Paris, and her name became associated with a wine variety.
Saint Genevieve is one of Paris's most important saints—legend says when Attila the Hun threatened Paris, her prayers supposedly saved the city, and to this day Parisians celebrate her on January 3rd!
