Jeronimo

Jeronimo is a Spanish variant of the name Jerome, which is derived from the Greek name Hieronymus. The name Hieronymus is composed of two parts: 'hieros' meaning 'sacred', and 'onyma' meaning 'name'.

The name Jeronimo can be traced back to Saint Jerome, a Christian scholar and priest who lived in the 4th century. He is best known for his translation of the Bible into Latin, known as the Vulgate.

While the name Jeronimo has its roots in Greek and is associated with Saint Jerome, it has been widely adopted and used in Spanish-speaking cultures. In these cultures, the name often carries religious and cultural significance, particularly within Catholic communities.

Over time, the name Jeronimo has become a popular name choice for boys in many Spanish-speaking countries, as well as in other parts of the world with Spanish cultural influences.
