Lasio is in Origin.

Lasio is a rare masculine given name with Mediterranean roots. It is most often treated as a clipped, modern offshoot of Italian Lazzaro or Spanish Lázaro - forms of biblical Lazarus, from Hebrew Eleazar “God has helped.” Some sources also connect it to Greek lasios “shaggy, luxuriant,” a descriptive byname. The -io ending aligns with Italian naming patterns seen in Mario and Dario.

Usage is sporadic in Italy and Latin America, where it appears as a creative variant, a surname-to-given transfer, or by influence from the regional name Lazio. It remains uncommon in English-speaking registries, surfacing chiefly in diaspora communities or as an individual coinage. Related forms include Laso, Lazio, Lazzaro, Lázaro, Lazar/Lazaro, and Eleazar; a feminine analog Lasia is attested. Meanings reflect the route taken: either “God has helped” or “thick‑haired, abundant.”
