"Variant of Emeterius"
The name Emeterio is commonly a male name from the "Spanish" origin.
Emeterio is the Spanish form of the Latin name Emeterius, borne by a martyr who, with his brother Celedonius, is venerated at Calahorra in northern Spain and is a patron saint of Santander. The name is recorded as a male given name in Spain and in Spanish-speaking communities, where it is usually associated with that saint rather than with a stated lexical meaning.
The pronunciation of Emeterio is eh-meh-TEHR-ee-oh.
