📖 Sobre Romain
Romain é a forma francesa de Roman/Romanus, do latim que significa "cidadão de Roma". São Romain de Ruão (c.585-639), padroeiro da capital normanda, estabeleceu o nome na tradição católica francesa. Na França, ele subiu dramaticamente durante os anos 1980 — do posto 8 (1983) para o posto 3 (1987-88), atingindo um pico de 9.630 nascimentos em 1987 — tornando-o o nome masculino definitório de uma geração francesa. Seus pilares culturais são o romancista Romain Gary (o único escritor a ganhar o Prix Goncourt duas vezes), o Nobel Romain Rolland, o sobrevivente de F1 Romain Grosjean e o ator Romain Duris.
