Savino

Meaning of Savino

Savino derives from the Latin term sabinus, originally denoting members of the ancient Sabine people of central Italy. Pronounced in Italian as sah-VEE-noh, the name has long served both as a given name and a surname and carries historical weight through figures like Saint Savino of Piacenza, a fourth-century bishop. In the United States Savino remains uncommon—roughly ten newborns per year receive the name, placing it near the 900th spot on national baby-name charts. Its steady presence among Italian-American families reflects a preference for heritage-rich, regionally rooted names.
