Serafino is Italian in Origin.
Serafino is the Italian masculine form of Seraphinus/Seraphim, ultimately from Hebrew śārāf, meaning “burning one,” the term for the fiery six-winged angels in Isaiah 6. The name entered Italian through Greek and Ecclesiastical Latin, carrying associations of ardor, purity, and divine guardianship.
It enjoyed steady use in medieval and Renaissance Italy, appearing among clerics and artists; bearers include the Capuchin lay brother Saint Serafino da Montegranaro (1540–1604) and the Renaissance poet-musician Serafino dell’Aquila (1466–1500). Today it is uncommon yet stylish, fitting Italy’s vintage revival and Catholic naming traditions. International variants and cognates include Seraphin (French, German), Seraphim (English/Greek liturgical), Serafim (Portuguese, Russian, Bulgarian), and Latin Seraphinus; the feminine is Serafina/Sarafina. Italian short forms such as Fino or Sera may be used.
