Consiglio

This name derives from the Latin “cōnsilium,” meaning “plan, council, advice,” which in turn derives from the Latin “cōnsulō,” meaning “consult, seek counsel from, take counsel from, reflect, take thought, think things over.” The name is inspired by the cult of “Holy Mary of Good Counsel,” a title which Mary (Our Lady) is venerated. Our Lady of Good Counsel (Latin: Mater boni consilii) is a title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary, after painting said to be miraculous, now found in the thirteenth century Augustinian church at Genazzano, near Rome, Italy. Measuring 40 by 45 centimeters, the image is a fresco executed on a thin layer of plaster no thicker than an eggshell.
