Lazaro

Lazaro is a Spanish name derived from the biblical name Lazarus, which comes from the Hebrew name 'El'azar', meaning 'God is my help'. It is the name of a man who was raised from the dead by Jesus Christ, as recounted in the Gospel of John.

The name has been widely used in Spanish-speaking cultures for centuries, particularly in Spain and Latin America. It is a name with strong Christian roots and associations with faith and miracles.

In some Latin American countries, Lazaro is also associated with the popular folk saint Lázaro or Lázaro Baramá, who is revered as a healer and patron of the poor and sick.

While Lazaro is predominantly a masculine name, it has occasionally been used as a feminine name as well, particularly in certain regions or cultural contexts.
