What is the meaning of the name Siro ?

The baby name Siro is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈsiːroʊ/ (English), /ˈsiːro/ or [ˈsi.ro] (Italian); respelling: "SEE-ro".

Siro is Italian in Origin.

Siro is a masculine name used chiefly in Italy and, more rarely, Spain. It derives from Latin Syrus, from Greek Syros/Syrios, meaning “a Syrian” or “man from Syria,” an ethnonym adopted as a given name in the Roman era.

In Italy it survived through devotion to Saint Syrus of Pavia and Saint Syrus of Genoa (San Siro), whose cults left churches and the Milan district/stadium named San Siro. Variants and cognates include Latin Syrus and feminine Syra, Italian Siro/Sira, Spanish Sirio/Sira, Portuguese Sírio, and Catalan Siró. Often mistaken for Ciro (Cyrus) or Japanese Shiro, it is etymologically distinct and lends a quiet, antique dignity.
