History & Origin

Liborio descends from the Latin Liborius through Italian and Spanish use, a saint's name sometimes tied to liber, 'free.' It keeps the memory of Saint Liborius of Le Mans and appears chiefly in Italian and Hispanic families, remaining uncommon in the United States.

Liborio showed up in modest numbers through the twentieth century, peaking around 1932 with still only about fifteen boys a year. A man named Liborio at that peak would belong to a grandparents' generation today, and the name holds its old-world, saintly feel.

Did you know? Saint Liborius of Le Mans, whose name gives us Liborio, is a patron invoked against gallstones, and his relics have been honored in the German city of Paderborn for over a thousand years.
