Zoilo / Zoilus

Zoilo is a name of ancient Greek origin, derived from the word 'zoe' (ζωή), meaning 'life'. It was a relatively common name in the Hellenistic world, particularly in the Roman Empire, where Greek culture and language had a significant influence. The name carried positive connotations of vitality and existence.

While not widely used in the modern English-speaking world, Zoilo has maintained some presence in Spanish-speaking countries due to the historical influence of Latin and Greek names. Its usage has generally been consistent but not overwhelmingly popular, often appearing in regions with a strong classical heritage.
