Tips

culture

Three reference points share this transliteration: (1) the English / French girl's name Constance, derived from Latin constantia 'steadfastness'; (2) Lake Constance (康斯坦斯湖, Bodensee) on the German-Swiss-Austrian border; (3) the German city of Konstanz on its shore. The masculine equivalent Constantine is rendered 康斯坦丁 - note the final 丁 vs 斯.
