Meaning & Origin of Aureliano
Meaning: Popularly glossed as 'golden'.
Origin: Latin (Aurelius + -anus).
A common claim: Widely said to mean 'golden', from Latin 'aurum' (gold). Actually: The 'gold' link is the popular explanation, but the Roman family name Aurelius is also traced by some linguists to a probable Sabine sun-god root — the connection to 'aurum' isn't certain.
