What does Mylo mean?
2 syllables

Mylo is a modern respelling of Milo, a name whose own origin is debated among scholars — it may derive from an Old Slavic root meaning "dear" or "gracious" (as in names like Miloslav), or from a Germanic element with a similar sense. The trendier "y" spelling is a recent stylistic choice rather than a separate historical name.

Mylo feels current and approachable, with a soft, friendly sound. It works nicely for a companion who's affectionate and easy to love, living up to that "dear one" sense.
