Claudia's Notebook puts her name front and center, written in flowing script across a soft watercolor apple blossom design.
Claudia is the feminine form of Claudius, a Roman family name. Wikipedia explains that it was originally used for any woman of the Claudia gens, an ancient Roman family. Behind the Name says it is mentioned briefly in the New Testament, but was rare as a Christian name until the 16th century.
Behind the Name lists Klaudia as the German variant and Claudina and Dina as Spanish pet forms, and Wikipedia notes the Portuguese accented Cláudia. In English, Claude and Claudie are natural shortenings, though the sources do not list them.
Claudia Sheinbaum became the first woman president of Mexico in 2024. Wikipedia says she trained as an energy and climate scientist and contributed to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change before serving as head of government of Mexico City. In 2025 Forbes ranked her the fifth most powerful woman in the world.
Claudia is a steady name rather than a fad. US Social Security data has it at 142nd in the 1940s and 156th in the 1950s, when more than 23,100 American girls were named Claudia, and back in the top 200 in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Every generation has had its share of Claudias.
Claudia Alexander, born in Vancouver in 1959, spent her career exploring the solar system. Wikipedia says that after leading NASA’s Galileo mission to Jupiter through its final years, she served as project manager and scientist for NASA’s part in the European-led Rosetta mission to Comet Churyumov–Gerasimenko until her death in 2015.
Any Claudia, of any age. The 6" x 9" size is roomy enough for proper writing and small enough for a handbag or school bag. With 160 plain lined pages there’s no fixed layout, so it can be a diary, a gratitude journal, a study notebook, a recipe book or a home for to-do lists. Notebooks tend to multiply in drawers, but one with her name on the front is instantly hers.
There’s something about seeing your own name in print. It makes a notebook feel like it belongs to you, which is a good reason to fill it. It also means Claudia can pick hers out of a pile in a second, at school, at work or on the kitchen counter.
How big is Claudia’s Notebook? About the size of a trade paperback book: 6 x 9 inches (15.2 x 22.9 cm), 160 lined pages.
