What does Lobo mean?
2 syllables

Lobo is simply the Spanish and Portuguese word for 'wolf,' descended from the Latin lupus. It's used as a nickname in Spanish-speaking cultures and has been adopted more broadly as a strong, single-word name.

Short, sharp, and easy to call across a yard, Lobo suits a pet with a wild streak or a striking, wolfish look. It reads as tough and a little untamed without trying too hard.
