Manfredo Origin and Meaning
The name Manfredo is a boy's name of Italian origin.
Manfredo is a masculine name of Italian and Germanic origin. It combines the Germanic elements 'man' (meaning 'man') and 'fred' (meaning 'peace'), thus conveying the meaning 'man of peace.' The name came to Italy through Lombard influence and gained popularity during the medieval period. Its most famous bearer was Manfred of Sicily, a 13th-century king. While uncommon in English-speaking countries, Manfredo remains in use in Italy and Spanish-speaking regions (as Manfredo or Manfred). The name carries a noble, somewhat romantic quality with its historical associations and melodious Italian ending, making it appealing for parents seeking a distinctive name with historical depth.
