    In Sardinia there are many personal names present only here and unknown in Italy.

    Italianized version - Sardinian version


    Gavino - Gavíne, Gabíne, Gaíne (compare it with the English "Gavin, Kevin", or French "Gabin") - the Sardinian name derives from the martyr Gabinius or Gabinus, his tomb is in the town of Porto Torres, in northern Sardinia.
    Bachisio - Báchis (pronounce "Bákis", with sibilant S, like the Z in English) - derives from Latin "Bacchisius" = son or servant of the god Bacchus.
    Gonario - Gonáre, Gunáre (in the middle ages there were other variants like Gunnári, Gunnáre) - compare it with the Scandinavian "Gunnar", this name is perhaps a relic of the Vandals' presence in Sardinia.
    Billía - Compare with the English "Bill or Billy", diminutives of William.

    Others strange and perhaps Germanic names were documented in Sardinia during the middle ages, but they are now extinct.

    Othokor, Ithokor - Germanic "Othokar", known in Latin as "Odoacar" = Odoacer
    Thorben or Latinized in Thorbenius or Thorbeniu - Compare with old Scandinavian names like "Thorvin, Thorfin, Thorwin"
    Thorgdor, Thorgodor, Thorgotor, Trogodor often was Latinized in Thorgodoriu, Thorgodori, Trogodori
    Non Auro, Sed Ferro, Recuperanda Est Patria (Not by Gold, But by Iron, Is the Nation to be Recovered) - Marcus Furius Camillus (Roman General)
