Ivo is a masculine given name, in use in various European languages. The name used in western European languages originates as a Germanic name.

Origins

[edit]

The name is recorded from the High Middle Ages among the Normans of France and England (Yvo of Chartres, born c. 1040). The name's etymology may be either Germanic or Celtic, in either case deriving from a given name with a first element meaning "yew" (Gaulish Ivo-, Germanic Iwa-).[1] The name may have been spread by the cult of Saint Ivo (d. 1303), patron saint of Brittany.

The Slavic name is a hypocorism, like its variant Ivica.[1] In Croatia, the name exhibits both Slavic and Celtic-Germanic origins; the Slavic variant Ivona of the Celtic-origin feminine name Yvonne, is regular and fairly common.

Variations

[edit]

Ivo has the genitive form of "Ives" in the place name St Ives. In France, the usual variation of the name is Yves. In the Hispanic countries of Latin America, the name commonly spelled Evo, which is the masculine version of the feminine name Eva or Eve, should not be confused with Ivo.

Feminine equivalents of the name include Iva, and Yvette, amongst others.
