Fabian is the English form of the late Roman name ''Fabianus''. This was the name given to freed (emancipated) slaves which originally belonged to a Roman family with the family (gens=clan) name ''Fabius'', that derived from the Latin ''faba'' for the broad bean, an important food crop in the Roman Empire. It entered the English language with the Normans, but has never achieved the popularity of ''Fabien'' in France, ''Fabio'' or ''Fabiano'' in Italy and ''Fabián'' in Spain. Fabian, or its variants, may also be a surname. ==Given name== *Pope Fabian (died 250), saint to whom is dedicated the Chapel of Saints Fabian and Sebastian in Donji Humac on the island of Brač, Croatia *Fabian Almazan (born 1984), Cuban born American pianist and composer *Fabian Bachrach (1917-2010), an American photographer *Fabian Birkowski (1566-1636), Polish writer and preacher *Fabian Cancellara (born 1981), Swiss professional road cyclist *Fabian Delph (born 1989), English Footballer *Fabian von Fersen (1762–1818), Swedish courtier and politician *Fabian Forte (born 1943), 1950s American teen idol and singer, also known as Fabian *Fabian Månsson (1872-1938), Swedish socialist *Fabius Maximus ca. 280 BC – 203 BC, Roman politician and general, namesake of the Fabian strategy *Fabian Nicieza (born 1961), American comic book writer *Fabian Núñez (born 1966), American politician *Fabian Varesi, Italian composer and keyboardist *Fabián Vargas (born 1980), Colombian midfielder *Fabian Velardes (born 1984), Argentinian boxer *Fabian Washington (born 1983), American Football player *Fabian Wilnis (born 1970), Dutch footballer 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fabian (name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
