Meaning and history
Calogero is an Italian masculine name especially associated with Sicily. It comes from Greek kalogeros, literally “good old man,” which became a respectful term for a monk. The name spread through devotion to Saint Calogerus, a hermit traditionally linked with Sicily. Notable bearers include Italian singer Calogero Maurici, known professionally as Calogero, and Italian politician Calogero Mannino. Its religious history is monastic rather than a reference to physical age.
