Julio

Pronunciation: KHOO-lee-oh, ZHOO-lee-oh (key)

Origin of the name Julian:

From the Latin Julianus, which is a derivative of Julius, and old Roman family name thought to be derived from Iulus (the first down on the chin, downy-bearded). Because a person just beginning to develop facial hair is young, “youth” became an accepted meaning of the name.
