from the ancient greek hugonos which means son of Zeus, Hugo refers to divine origin. Hugo was the inspiration for the mythical tales of Hercules and Perseus. After the fall of Athens and the rise of Rome, Hugo was used as a mark of valour and bravery. First used by Augustus Ceasar, Hugo came to be applied only to the Emperors. With the fall of Constantinople, Hugo became a common word in the Middle-East and Asia. Today, the word Hugo has kept it's meaning of divine origin but it applies solely to one man, born in Quebec city on the 26th of July 1984.
