Iolo is a gender-neutral name with two distinct origins, one for boys and the other for girls. As a masculine name, Iolo welcomes your meritable new ruler with its Welsh and Celtic roots from Iôr Werzh, meaning “virtuous or worthy lord.” Also bearing rich purple vibes, Iolo, as a feminine name, comes from the Ancient Greek Iole, the name of a mythological princess of Oechalia, meaning “violet” and “purple or dark blue flower.” Infused with noble leadership and fragrant, romantic blossoms, Iolo embraces strength and beauty no matter which origin calls to you.
