Ántonia Name meanings & History

Praiseworthy. Used in ''My Ántonia'', as the name of a Bohemian (Czech) protagonist. A form of the name Antonia, different than the usual Czech form Antonie-1. The book is set at the end of the 1800s and start of the 1900s, so perhaps this is a more old fashioned form of the name.Czech names (and words) are normally accented on the first syllable. Perhaps the accent mark was author Willa Cather's way of indicating this?. Ántonia is mainly used in Spanish speaking countries, but it is also used in other parts of the world.
