History & Origin

Venicio is a Romance-language name most often read as 'of Venice', from the Latin Venetius — the adjective for the Veneti, the people who gave Venice and the Veneto their names. It is used in Italy and in Spanish-speaking countries, sometimes alongside the related Venancio (a distinct name from Latin venari). Because those lines cross, the routes are somewhat blended, which we note (said 'veh-NEE-chee-oh').

In the U.S. it appears only rarely. Rare, Romance-flavoured, and lyrical.

Did you know? Venicio carries the ring of Venice — the Latin Venetius named the Veneti people of northeastern Italy. It appears in both Italian and Spanish families, and its routes are somewhat blended, which we note (said 'veh-NEE-chee-oh').
