Origin and meaning of Emiliano

Emiliano comes from the Latin Aemilianus, 'belonging to the gens Aemilia', a distinguished Roman family whose name relates to aemulus, 'rival, emulous'. It began as a Roman family name. Today it is popular and growing in both Italy and the Spanish-speaking world, much loved in Argentina, Mexico and Spain; people like its full, sunny sound and its link to Roman history.
