Origin and meaning of Giulio
Giulio comes from the Latin Iulius, name of the gens Iulia, which claimed descent from Iulus, son of Aeneas, and thus from the goddess Venus. Made immortal by Julius Caesar, one of history's most famous statesmen and commanders, it is an elegant, common boys' classic in Italy. Julius, Jules and Julio make it widespread across Europe and Latin America.
