Jade (given name)
Jade is a given name derived from the ornamental stone jade, which is used in artwork and in jewellery making. The name is derived from the Spanish ''piedra de la ijada'', which means "stone of the colic." There was a belief that when jade was placed on the stomach, it could cure colic in babies.〔(Behind the Name )〕 The stone is greatly valued in Asian countries. Confucius believed it had properties encouraging purity, bravery, and honesty. Chinese emperors were buried in suits made of the stone because they believed it would make them live on forever.〔(Holland Cutter, "Art Review: The Jade of China, Alive With Meaning, Yet Glossily Elusive".
