Origin
Meaning and history of Davarrio
The name Davarrio has its origins in the Italian language and culture, dating back to the late medieval period around the 13th century. It is believed to be derived from the Latin name "Davarius," which itself comes from the word "davus," meaning "a slave or servant."
In its earliest recorded use, Davarrio was primarily found in regions such as Tuscany and Umbria in central Italy. The name was often associated with families of lower social status or those who had ancestors who were servants or serfs.
There are no significant historical references or mentions of the name Davarrio in ancient texts, religious scriptures, or major historical records from that time period.
One of the earliest recorded individuals with the name Davarrio was Davarrio di Piero, a minor nobleman from the town of Arezzo in Tuscany, who lived in the late 14th century. Another notable figure was Davarrio Boccaccio, a poet and playwright from Florence in the early 15th century, known for his satirical works.
In the 16th century, Davarrio Guicciardini was a prominent merchant and banker from the powerful Guicciardini family of Florence. He played a significant role in the city's economic affairs during the Renaissance period.
During the 17th century, Davarrio Buonarroti was a sculptor and architect from Florence, known for his work on several churches and public buildings in the city.
In the 19th century, Davarrio Rossini was an Italian composer and conductor from Pesaro, best known for his operas and instrumental works, including the iconic overture "The Barber of Seville."

FAQ
Davarrio: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Davarrio?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 5 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Davarrio going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 68,550,868 US residents.
Is Davarrio a common name?
We classify Davarrio as "Very Rare". It ranks above 18.2% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 5 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Davarrio most popular?
The single biggest year for Davarrio was 1999, when 5 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Davarrio is about 27 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Davarrio in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Davarrio a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Davarrio in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Davarrio still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Davarrio in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Davarrio can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
