    Please be patient. The person or persons who may know the answer to your question may not be online at the moment. We are just ordinary people who live ordinary lives. We volunteer our spare time here, and, since it is the weekend, many people are spending time with their loved ones.

    Hello,

    Fabian comes from the latin FABA which means bean, also said to come from the city: FABIAE and that it means planter of beans.

    The name is used in english speaking countries, but also Holland, Germany and Polen.
    On January 20 there is a feast in honor of Holy Fabianus a pope and martyr coming from the third century.
    On December 27 there is a feast in honor of Holy Fabiola coming from the fourth century who set up the first hospitals.

    Hope this was of help.
