Servando

Servando Origin and Meaning

The name Servando is a boy's name.

Servando is a masculine name of Spanish and Italian origin derived from the Latin 'servandus,' meaning 'one who must be preserved' or 'worthy of being saved.' The name has historical significance through Saint Servandus, a Christian martyr from the 3rd century who was venerated particularly in Spain. Popular primarily in Spanish-speaking countries and communities, Servando carries traditional Catholic resonance while remaining relatively uncommon even within these regions. The name has a dignified, classical quality with its connection to Latin roots and religious history. In the United States, it appears mostly in families with Hispanic heritage who are preserving cultural naming traditions or honoring family members.
