MEANING & HISTORY
What does Victorino mean?
Victorino is the Spanish form of Roman Victorinus, itself derived from Victor. The base name is the Latin word for a victor or conqueror.
The longer formation has its own Roman historical bearers; translating its ending as little champion would introduce a nuance not supplied by the consulted account.
