Origin and etymology of the name

Scholarly onomastic and linguistic analysis
Linguistic explanation and meaning

A Latin name denoting a man belonging to the ancient Roman Pontius family.

Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno pochádza z latinského mena Pontianus, odvodeného príponou -anus od rímskeho rodového mena Pontius. Pôvodne teda označovalo človeka patriaceho k Pontiovmu rodu. Samotné meno Pontius má pravdepodobne oskický pôvod a súvisí s číslovkou „päť“; spájanie s morom alebo oblasťou Pontus je menej presvedčivé.
