The name Tanaquil is a Latin baby name. In Latin the meaning of the name Tanaquil is: Worshipped in the home.
The daughter of a powerful Etruscan
family in Tarquinii, Etruria, Tanaquil thought her husband would make a good leader, but since he was the son of an immigrant, he would not be able to gain power in Tarquinii, where they lived. Knowing this, Tanaquil encouraged him to move to Rome, which was not at the time dominated by a strong local aristocracy. Her strong prophetic abilities helped her to install Tarquin as
king and
later Servius Tullius as the next
king. While on the road to Rome, an eagle flew off with Tarquin's hat and then returned it to his
head. Tanaquil interpreted this as a sign that the gods wanted him to become a
king.
