Savio

Origin and meaning of Savio

Savio springs from the Italian adjective 'savio', itself from the Latin sapidus, 'sensible, discerning': it describes someone blessed with wisdom, measure and good judgement. The name carries an almost wishful quality, entrusting a child with the promise of a balanced, thoughtful nature. In Italy it stays fairly rare and refined, chosen above all for its gentle sound and clear meaning; beyond Italian borders it is virtually unknown, which makes it delightfully original.
