Fabriano is Italian in Origin.

Fabriano is an Italian masculine name with toponymic roots, taken from the city of Fabriano in the Marche region. The place-name descends from Latin Fabrianum, a rural estate designation built on a Roman cognomen connected to faber, “craftsman, smith,” or to the family name Fabricius. On that basis, the name is usually understood to carry the sense “from the (estate of the) craftsmen” or more broadly “craftsman.”

Attested as a personal identifier in medieval and Renaissance records mainly as a byname indicating origin (e.g., Gentile da Fabriano), Fabriano remains a rare given name, occasionally chosen in modern Italy and among the diaspora for its artisanal resonance and geographic specificity. Related and variant forms include Italian Fabrizio, French Fabrice, Spanish Fabricio, Portuguese Fabrício, and the feminine Fabrizia; Fabri appears as a short form. Distinct from Fabiano (no r), which derives from Fabianus “bean-grower.”
