I am not very knowledgeable in searching Catholic information, but I would like to know where I can find information on the Patron Saint of my Baby's name.

Origin of the name Briseida?
The following web site gives you this information:

It sais,
"Briseida, English, Spanish form of Briseis.
Briseis, Greek. In Greek mythology, Briseis was a Trojan widow (from Lyrnessos) who was abducted during the Trojan War by Achilles after the death of her husband Mines and brother in the fight."

It sais,
"Briseis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Greek mythology, Brisēís (Greek Βρισηίς) was a Trojan widow (from Lyrnessus) who was abducted during the Trojan War by Achilles upon the death of her three brothers and husband, King Mynes of Lyrnessus, in the fight. After an oracle forced Agamemnon to give up Chryseis, a woman he had captured, the king ordered his heralds Talthybius and Eryrates to take Briseis from Achilles as compensation. Achilles was offended by this seizure and, as a result, withdrew from the fighting. He did not return to the fray until the death of Patroclus.

The retirement of Achilles to his tent is the first event of Homer's Iliad. With Achilles removed from the conflict, the Trojans enjoyed a period of success. After Achilles' return to the fighting, Agamemnon restored Briseis to Achilles.

Briseis's real name was Hippodameia, "Briseis" being a patronym as a daughter of Briseus.

In Homer, Briseis is Achilles' captive, given to him by the Greek army as a prize. He also loves her, comparing their relationship with that of man and wife, and is angry at the thought that Agamemnon sleeps with her. When the quarrel is resolved, Agamemnon swears to Achilles that he has never slept with Briseis."

The web site

(the web address is one line, no breaks)
gives info on Briseus,

"BRISEUS (Bpi(T^s\ the father of Briseis, was a son of Ardys and king of the Leleges at Pedasus, or a priest at Lyrnessus. (Horn. 77. i. 392, ii. 689.) Briseus is said to have hanged himself when he lost his daughter. (Diet. Cret. ii. 17.) [L. S.]

Quite an adventurous story!
No saintly origin, but the name of a brave and noble woman.
