Tulio Origin and Meaning

The name Tulio is a boy's name of Latin origin.

Heard in both Italy and Spain, Tulio could make a more unusual alternative to Julio. Or with the rediscovery of many Roman names, you might want to go to the original Tullius, the middle name of the philosopher and statesman Cicero.

Though the Irish Tully has a different root, it can make a sprightly nickname.
