What Is The Meaning Of The Word ' CASANOVA ' And Its Origin ?

The word Casanova is actually not a fictitious one, unlike Don Juan. Casanova is the name of an actual person, while Don Juan is a legend.

The word Casanova originates from the name of the man Gian Giacomo Girolamo Casanova, and is nowadays used to refer to a man who is a womanizer. The reference is partly because the original Casanova, in his time (April 2, 1725 to June 4, 1798), was a womanizer himself, though that was not all he was. He was born in Venice and died in Dux, which is now Duchov,in the Czech Republic. He was also a writer and adventurer.

As a womanizer, Casanova used his charm, good looks, guile, and even aggression to seduce women. Today, the term is used to denote amorous men. So much so that the dictionary meaning of Casanova is 'a man who is amorously and gallantly attentive to women.'
