History and Origin
Fabio [ˈfaːbjo] is a given name descended from Latin Fabius and very popular in Italy and Brazil (due to Italian migration). Fabianus originates from Fabius and it is equivalent to the English Fabian.
The name is written without an accent in Italian and Spanish, but is usually accented in Portuguese as Fábio (and often abbreviated Fabinho). There are few exceptions to this, such as in the case of the Brazilian singer Fabio Góes. The presence or absence of the written accent affects pronunciation.
Those with the name Fabio or Fábio include:
Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese: from the old Roman family name Fabius, said to be a derivative of faba bean. Members of this family were prominent in republican Rome. The most famous of them was Quintus Fabius Maximus (d. 203 BC), the Roman general who harassed the invader Hannibal but never joined battle, giving his name to the phrase ‘Fabian tactics’, implying a policy of gradual attrition as opposed to full-scale confrontation. The name was also used among the early Christians: St Fabius (d. 300) was a Roman soldier beheaded at Caesarea in Mauretania under the Emperor Diocletian.
