Meaning and background
The story behind Divo
Divo is an Italian word for a celebrated male performer or star, and its feminine counterpart is diva. The word has an older Latin connection with divinity, but its contemporary show-business sense is the relevant one when used as a lively pet name. It is important not to promise that a dog called Divo will be talented or attention-seeking. The documented meaning describes a cultural title, not a personality trait.
