Gift of God
Mattia is the Italian form of Matthias, which ultimately derives from the Hebrew name Mattityahu. While traditionally a masculine name in Italy, its soft ending has led to occasional unisex use in English-speaking countries. It shares the same etymological roots as the more common English name Matthew.
