Timo is a boy’s name of Greek and Finnish origin. It’s a Finnish form of the Greek Timothy, which combines the words timē, meaning “honor” or “respect,” and theos, meaning “God,” to mean “honoring God.” In the Christian Bible, the name is borne by a young disciple to whom Paul addressed two letters, and who later became a saint. Timo could be the perfect choice for a Finn wishing to lead baby through a life of faith.
