Origin
Meaning and history of Julianno
The name Julianno is a masculine given name with origins tracing back to ancient Rome. It is derived from the Latin name Iulianus, which itself originated from the Roman family name Iulius. The gens Iulia was one of the most prominent patrician families in ancient Rome, and the name Iulius was borne by several notable historical figures, including the Roman dictator Julius Caesar.
The name Iulianus was initially a patronymic, meaning "descendant of Iulius." It gained popularity during the Roman Empire and was widely used among both commoners and nobility. In the 4th century AD, the name was borne by the Roman Emperor Julianus, also known as Julian the Apostate, who ruled from 361 to 363 AD and sought to revive the traditional Roman religion and culture.
As the Roman Empire spread its influence across Europe and the Mediterranean, the name Iulianus and its variants, such as Julianno, were adopted and adapted by various cultures and languages. In the Middle Ages, the name was prevalent among Christian communities, particularly in Italy and Spain, where it was often associated with Saint Julian the Hospitaller, a 3rd-century Roman martyr.
One of the earliest recorded instances of the name Julianno can be found in the 13th century, when Julianno di Rimini, an Italian painter and illuminator, was active in the city of Rimini. Another notable figure bearing the name was Julianno de' Medici (1479-1516), an Italian nobleman and member of the powerful Medici family of Florence.
In later centuries, the name Julianno continued to be used across Europe, with several notable individuals bearing it. These include Julianno Gambarruto (1585-1639), an Italian painter and engraver active in Rome; Julianno de Sousa Carvalho (1638-1710), a Portuguese nobleman and diplomat; and Julianno Aprile (1738-1813), an Italian composer and music theorist.
Throughout history, the name Julianno has also been borne by various religious figures, such as Julianno di Conti (1451-1511), an Italian Catholic prelate who served as the Archbishop of Arles; and Julianno García Hernando (1886-1944), a Spanish Catholic priest and martyr during the Spanish Civil War.
While the name Julianno has its roots in ancient Rome and has been present in various cultures and time periods, it has maintained a strong connection to its Latin origins and the historical significance of the Iulius family name.

FAQ
Julianno: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Julianno?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 10 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Julianno 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 34,275,434 US residents.
Is Julianno a common name?
We classify Julianno as "Very Rare". It ranks above 28.5% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 10 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Julianno most popular?
The single biggest year for Julianno was 2013, when 5 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Julianno is about 8 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 Julianno in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Julianno a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Julianno 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 Julianno still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Julianno 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 Julianno 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.
