What is the meaning of the name Guglilmo ?

The baby name Guglilmo is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced Goo-LYEL-moh (approx. IPA: /ɡuʎˈjɛlmo/).

Guglilmo is Italian in Origin.

Guglilmo is a rare variant spelling of the Italian name Guglielmo, the cognate of English William. It descends from the Germanic compound Wilhelm, formed from wil/wilja “will, desire” and helm “helmet, protection,” yielding the sense “resolute protector” or “steadfast defender.” In Italian records, the standard form includes the second e (Guglielmo); the form without it tends to be modern and uncommon.

Usage reaches back to medieval Italy through Norman and German influence, and the name appears in hagiography and aristocratic lineages. A famous bearer is the physicist and radio pioneer Guglielmo Marconi. International variants include William (English), Wilhelm (German, Scandinavian), Guillaume (French), Guillermo (Spanish), and Guilherme (Portuguese); short forms and diminutives include Will, Willy, Liam, and in Italian Guglielmino/Guglielmetto. Guglilmo would be understood as the same name but may be standardized to Guglielmo in official contexts.
