patron Name Meaning and History

Spanish (Patrón) and northern Italian: from Spanish patrón ‘master’ (Latin patronus, a derivative of pater ‘father’). The term had various senses in the Middle Ages; it was applied, for example, to the master of a ship, and also to the former owner of a freed serf, who still enjoyed certain rights over him.
