Narciso

Narciso is a masculine name with Greek origins, derived from the mythological figure Narcissus, a hunter known for his beauty who fell in love with his own reflection. The name literally relates to the narcissus flower, which according to legend sprouted where the youth died. Popular in Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese-speaking countries, Narciso carries an air of classical elegance and cultural depth. Unlike the negative connotations sometimes associated with 'narcissism,' the name itself has been respected throughout Mediterranean cultures for centuries. It peaked in popularity during the early 20th century but remains a distinctive choice that conveys a connection to classical mythology and natural beauty.

Pronounced nar-SEE-so.
