What is the meaning of the name Edgardo ?

Edgardo is in Origin.

Edgardo is the Italian and Spanish form of Edgar, ultimately from Old English Eadgar, combining ead “wealth, fortune” and gar “spear,” yielding the sense of “prosperous spear” or “wealth-guarded by the spear.” Borne by Anglo-Saxon royalty - most notably King Edgar the Peaceful (10th century) - the name traveled into Romance contexts through Latinized records and literary exchange, retaining its blend of martial strength and good fortune.

In Italy, Edgardo gained cultural visibility through Donizetti’s opera Lucia di Lammermoor (1835), whose tragic hero is Edgardo di Ravenswood; the form later took root in Spain and much of Latin America, with U.S. usage rising alongside Hispanic immigration in the late 20th century. Related forms include Edgar (English/Spanish), Édgar (accented Spanish variant), Edgard (French/Belgian), and archaic Eadgar; a rare feminine is Edgarda. Short forms overlap with Edgar, such as Ed and Eddy, and in Italian occasionally Edo.
