Thiago Forename Meaning

User-submitted Reference

It is a male given name, which has several possible origins.

1. From the Hebrew name Yaaqobh, which is now updated to names like Jakob or James, which states that when he (Yaaqobh) was born, his hand took hold of Esau's (his brother) heel. Due to that behaviour, he became known as 'holder of the heel' (Genesis 27:36).

2. From the Latin word didacus, which means 'doctrine' or 'teaching'. That way, Diogo receives the meaning of 'one who teaches'.

Diogo is a Portuguese version of the Spanish name Diego.

The Portuguese version of the name for two different saints, St. James the Greater and St. James the Lesser. This particular formulation could have been taken from Iaco, the Romanization of the Hebrew for Jacob ( יַעֲקֹב ).
