In Colombia it is the apocope of the names of male Florencio and Florindo. Both are of Latin origin. The first means that it has the beauty of the flowers and the second although it can also have the same meaning, it is also given that of "the master who possesses shield or pre-detection". It was also the name of a Roman historian, born in Africa. His full name was Lucius Anneo Floro (in some texts he is listed as Publio Annio Floro). In Peru, it can mean liar, liar.
