Lentorama 2018: Second String Saints

Day 12 - Pudentiana

Nepotism isn't just for government jobs. Pudentiana is one of the daughters of St. Pudens, though there's no mention of her (or her sister, Praxedes) in what documentary evidence there is of his life. She's said to have helped build a baptistry in her father's church, and assisted in baptizing pagans. She died at 16 and was said to be martyred, which when combined with being the daughter of a saint appears to have paved the way to her own sainthood.

At least until it appears that your very existence was based on an improper translation of a church named for your dad. Still, Pudentiana did get named the patron saint of the Phillipines in the 16th century, and does have a titular bishopric named after her. And like Boniface of Tarsus, she's still venerated in Orthodox Christianity.

(Full diclosure: I originally chose Pudentiana in the hopes that her name was somehow derived from "pudenda." In some ways I am still a 12 year old boy.)
