Fabri is Latin in Origin.

Fabri is a Romance short form rooted in the Latin faber, “craftsman, smith.” In Latin, fabri is the genitive singular (“of the craftsman”) and the nominative plural (“craftsmen”); in medieval records it appears often as a Latinized occupational byname and later as a hereditary surname across Italy, France, and Central Europe. As a given name, Fabri is used chiefly in Spanish and Italian contexts as a clipped form of Fabricio/Fabrizio, with occasional independent use in Catalan and French.

Its core meaning evokes skill, ingenuity, and industriousness: “maker,” “artisan,” or “smith.” Related variants include Fabrice (French), Fabrizio (Italian), Fabricio (Spanish), Fabrício (Portuguese), and the classical Fabricius; feminine counterparts are Fabrizia and Fabrícia. Diminutives and short forms include Fabri itself and, in Italian, Brizio. Contemporary visibility comes through athletes and artists using Fabri as a nickname or stage name, and it is sometimes recorded as an official first name in Romance‑speaking countries.
