Jago is a masculine name of Spanish and Cornish origin. It is an alternative spelling of Iago, and both come from the Hebrew Jacob, meaning "supplanter," represented positively in the bible but negatively in Shakespeare's play Othello. This mixture of honored forebearers and heinous villains will remind baby that there is light and dark in the world, but the name's other meaning, "beauty," promises that the good outweighs the bad.
