Téo is a Romance-language short form of Teodoro or Théodore, themselves derived from the Greek name Theodoros, composed of the elements theos, meaning god, and doron, meaning gift, giving the overall sense of gift of god. The name spread widely through the Christian world in honor of several saints and martyrs bearing the longer form. Téo is particularly common as an independent given name in French- and Spanish-speaking countries, reflecting a broader modern trend of using diminutives as standalone names. Related forms include Theo, Teo, Theodore, and Théodore.
