What Does the Name Constantino Mean?
Constantino is the Spanish and Portuguese form of the Latin name Constantinus, which means "steadfast" or "constant." Constantinus comes from the Latin adjective constans (genitive constantis), "standing firm, steadfast, constant," the present participle of constare, "to stand together, stand firm." The Latin suffix -inus formed related names, as in Augustinus from Augustus. Latin also had the related names Constans and Constantius; Constantinus is generally explained as a derivative of Constans, though the exact relationship among these cognomina is not always stated. Italian usually has Costantino; other related forms include Constantine (English), Constantin (French and Romanian), and Konstantinos (Greek).
Constantino Name History & Origins
The Latin name Constantinus was a Roman cognomen, a personal or family name. Its most famous bearer was Flavius Valerius Constantinus, known in English as Constantine the Great (c. 272 - 337). He became Roman emperor in 306, legalized Christianity, and founded Constantinople on the site of Byzantium. The name is closely associated with his reign and with the Christian empire that followed. Greek speakers used Κωνσταντῖνος (Konstantinos), a form borne by several Byzantine emperors and saints.
In the western Romance languages, Latin Constantinus developed into Spanish and Portuguese Constantino. The Latin ending -inus regularly corresponds to -ino in these languages, and the initial Con- reflects the Latin stem. Italian normally uses Costantino instead. As a given name, Constantino belongs to the same family as English Constantine, but it follows the Spanish and Portuguese form of the name. Its use in Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking regions was connected with Christian devotion to saints named Constantine and with the memory of Constantine the Great.
