Jaro
Jaro Origin and Meaning
Jaro is a masculine name with diverse cultural roots. In Slavic languages, particularly Slovak and Czech, it means 'spring' or 'springtime,' symbolizing renewal and vitality. It also exists as a diminutive of Jarosław or Jaromír in Polish and other Slavic languages, names containing elements meaning 'fierce' and 'glory' or 'peace.' In Filipino culture, Jaro can refer to a district in Iloilo City or a traditional festival.
