Spanish variation of Santos

Sanctos Origin and Meaning

The name Sanctos is a boy's name.

Sanctos is a masculine name derived from the Latin word "sanctus," meaning "holy" or "sacred." It's a variant spelling of Santos, which is more commonly found in Spanish and Portuguese-speaking countries. The name carries strong religious connotations, reflecting devotion and reverence in Christian traditions, where "santos" refers to saints. This spelling variation with the 'c' gives it a slightly more classical Latin appearance. While not among the most common names, Sanctos has a dignified, spiritual quality that may appeal to religiously-minded parents. Its cross-cultural nature allows it to work in both Hispanic communities and beyond, offering a name that is distinctive yet meaningful with its clear etymological roots in sacredness.
