Behind the Name: Comments for the name Dino

Comments for DINO:

Dino has been my given nickname before I could even walk and talk. It was given to me as a variant of my middle name, Dean. To this day some people still only call me Dino and I still love being known by it.

Although Dino has that Italian feel, I can't help thinking of a certain cartoon dinosaur on the Flintstones. I've only ever encountered one person bearing this name and I felt sorry for the boy. I can only hope Dino was a nickname and not his actual name.
