Epifanio is celebrated in Argentina on May 23.
Epifanio is a name with Greek roots that means "the one who brings manifestations" or "the one who shows himself," with a classic and ancient air that makes it unique in the current landscape. Historically, it has been borne by several saints and religious figures, giving it a touch of solemnity, although nowadays it sounds more like a great-uncle with plenty of stories to tell. It is a name that carries the elegance of antiquity, but in modern Argentina has become almost an exotic and fun first surname.
Imagine an Epifanio: someone who arrives late everywhere but always with an incredible anecdote, a bit absent-minded but with a huge heart. He has that strange mix of being very serious when talking about politics or football, but capable of laughing at any nonsense in the middle of a serious dinner. He is the friend who saves you with wise advice (sometimes unasked) and who always has the last word in trivial arguments, although sometimes he is right by accident.
