Historical Context
Constanza evolved as a Romance-language form of the Latin adjective constans, meaning steady or resolute. The English form Constance became established in medieval England often as a virtue name, and related forms developed across Europe.

Where forms vary, such as Constanze in German, they share the same root even though pronunciation and local flavour change.
