Cuttino is in Origin.
Cuttino is a rare given name most plausibly derived from an Italian/Sicilian surname such as Cuttino or Cutino. The ending -ino is a common Romance diminutive that can mean “little,” “junior,” or “descendant of,” so the name functions as a familial or affectionate form built on an older root now obscured. As a transferred surname, Cuttino does not carry a single fixed meaning beyond this diminutive sense, though it signals Italian heritage in many cases.
As a first name, Cuttino is primarily documented in the United States from the late 20th century, with visibility boosted by NBA player Cuttino Mobley (born 1975). Usage remains uncommon and often reads as a distinctive, modern choice with Mediterranean flavor. Variants and related forms include Cutino, Cuttini, and the short form Tino; a very rare feminine counterpart Cuttina occasionally appears. The name is sometimes compared in structure to Portuguese Coutinho, though that is a separate lineage.
