Eufemio
Latin origin
“The masculine Spanish/Italian form of Eufemia, derived from Greek eu- (good) and pheme (speech, reputation), meaning 'well-spoken' or 'of good fame.' Eufemio carries formal, classical dignity while remaining distinctive, appealing to parents seeking a masculine name with deep historical and linguistic roots.”
