Policarpo is a name of Greek origin meaning "very fertile" or "abundant," with roots in classical antiquity. Although today it sounds like a white-bearded, bowler-hat-wearing great-uncle, it was once a classic among early Christians. It is a name with history, but nowadays it is used more out of affection or family tradition.
