Ginobili is of Italian origin, meaning 'from the field'. It's a patronymic surname, derived from the word 'gino', which means 'field' or 'farm'. The name was brought to Argentina by Italian immigrants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, Ginobili is most famously associated with Manu Ginóbili, a four-time NBA champion who played for the San Antonio Spurs from 2002 to 2018.
The name Ginobili was given to seven babies born in 2005.
