Requiem Origin and Meaning
The name Requiem is a girl's name meaning "rest; act or token of remembrance; Mass or musical composition for the souls of the dead".
A word name linked to music and spirituality, Requiem could have the more familiar nicknames Remi or Emmy. Associated with remembrance, Catholic Mass, and music for the dead, it more literally means "rest". It has never been used as a name (yet!)
