Abelino is of Spanish and Portuguese origin, meaning "beloved" or "gentle". It is a derivative of the Latin word 'Amabilis', which translates to "lovable" or "amiable". The name Abelino was popular during medieval times in Spain and Portugal, often bestowed upon individuals believed to possess an amiable and gentle demeanor. Today, it remains a unique choice for parents seeking a distinctive name with historical roots.
It seems Abelino was quite popular among parents during certain periods, with peaks in the late 1920s and early 1930s, and again around the mid-2000s. However, it's clear that this name has gone out of fashion since then, with fewer than ten births recorded each year from 2014 onwards.
