Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Antonín je česká podoba latinského mena Antoninus, utvoreného z rímskeho rodového mena Antonius príponou -inus vo význame „patriaci k Antoniovcom“ alebo „pochádzajúci z Antoniovho rodu“. Samotné meno Antonius sa zväčša pokladá za meno pravdepodobne etruského pôvodu, jeho pôvodný význam však nie je známy. Spájanie s gréckymi slovami anthos („kvet“) či antios („protiľahlý, čeliaci“) predstavuje neskoršiu ľudovú etymológiu.
