Melito Origin and Meaning

The name Melito is a boy's name of Spanish origin.

Melito is a masculine name with ancient roots, derived from the Greek name 'Melitos' meaning 'honey' or 'sweet as honey.' It has historical significance as it was borne by several early Christian figures, including Saint Melito of Sardis, a 2nd-century bishop and Christian apologist. Despite its venerable history, Melito remains quite rare in contemporary usage, giving it a distinctive and uncommon quality. The name carries warm connotations through its honey-related etymology, suggesting a sweet and pleasant disposition. While not widely used in English-speaking countries, it maintains some usage in Mediterranean regions and among families with classical or ecclesiastical naming traditions.
