"Hispania" meaning in Latin

See Hispania in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /hisˈpaː.ni.a/ [Classical-Latin], [hɪs̠ˈpäːniä] [Classical-Latin], /isˈpa.ni.a/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [isˈpäːniä] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: Traditionally thought to derive from a Phoenician/Punic name *𐤀𐤉𐤔𐤐𐤍 (*ʾyšpn /⁠*ʔī šap̄ān⁠/, literally “island of the hyrax”), with elements equivalent to Hebrew אִי (ʔī, “island”) and שָׁפָן (šap̄ā́n, “hyrax”), where the Phoenicians would have thought the land's many rabbits to resemble hyraxes. This theory had some currency among Roman authors, and may explain why Hispania is depicted with rabbits on some Roman coins. But later scholars have sometimes doubted this interpretation and proposed other possible Phoenician etyma, like *𐤀𐤉 𐤑𐤐𐤍 (*ʾy ṣpn /⁠*ʔī ṣappūn⁠/, literally “island of the north”).

This theory had some currency among Roman authors, and may explain why Hispania is depicted with rabbits on some Roman coins. But later scholars have sometimes doubted this interpretation and proposed other possible Phoenician etyma, like *𐤀𐤉 𐤑𐤐𐤍 (*ʾy ṣpn /⁠*ʔī ṣappūn⁠/, literally “island of the north”).",

This theory had some currency among Roman authors, and may explain why Hispania is depicted with rabbits on some Roman coins. But later scholars have sometimes doubted this interpretation and proposed other possible Phoenician etyma, like *𐤀𐤉 𐤑𐤐𐤍 (*ʾy ṣpn /⁠*ʔī ṣappūn⁠/, literally “island of the north”).",
