Vincent (Latin origin) means "conquering". It became a popular name during the Middle Ages, when the French brought it to England. Though there are many Saint Vincents, St. Vincent de Paul of the 17th century is perhaps the most notable. Vincent is from the Roman name Vincentius, which was derived from the Latin vincere.
Vincent Willem van Gogh (30 March 1853 – 29 July 1890) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist artist who emerged as one of the most famous figures in the history of Western art after his death. RIP Vincent.
