Supplanter
Yago is a Spanish contraction of Santiago, which itself is derived from the Hebrew name Jacob. It shares the same etymological root meaning 'supplanter' or 'one who follows.' While less common than Diego or Tiago, it remains a distinct and punchy Iberian choice.
About 10 boys were named Yago in 2025.
