Worldwide, Montano (Montano , Montaño , Монтано ) is quite a rare principally male, but scarcely female forename. The first name Montano is habitual in Equatorial Guinea, where it is quite a rare boy's name, Philippines, and Bolivia, where it is quite a rare unisex name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is the most numerous in Philippines, Italy, and Bolivia. Much more prevalently, Montano is the last name as well as the forename.
Montano is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Montano , the operatic character in the opera Otello by Giuseppe Verdi; former Governor of Cyprus and Montano , the theatrical character in William Shakespeare's Othello; Othello's Venetian predecessor in the government of Cyprus.
