Meaning, origin, history

Giordano is an Italian given name derived from the Latin word 'georgius', meaning "farmer" or "earthworker". It is a variant of the name George and has been used in Italy since medieval times. The name Giordano has gained popularity outside of Italy due to notable figures who have borne this name, such as Giordano Bruno, an Italian Dominican friar, philosopher, and astronomer burned at the stake by the Inquisition in 1600 for his unorthodox views on religion and cosmology. Additionally, Giordano is a popular given name in South American countries like Argentina and Brazil, where it has been traditionally used as a masculine name but can also be given to females.
