Salarino

US Popularity Rank: None

Origin: Italian

Meaning: Salary

Salarino is a Shakespearean boy's name and is a spin on the Italian word for "salary," so you can use it as a reminder to your little one to always know their worth. It has a familiar sound but comes with a layer of culture thanks to its appearance in The Merchant of Venice. As a character, Salarino is one of a handful that are preoccupied with their wealth and status. He and Solanio are two sides of the same coin, making this name extra sweet if baby is going to be a twin.
