Enzo is an Italian given name derivative of the German name Heinz. It can be used also as the short form for Lorenzo, Vincenzo, Innocenzo, or Fiorenzo. It is most common in the Romance-speaking world, particularly in Italy and Latin America. It has also been well-used in countries such as France, where it was the most popular name for newborn boys in 2004 and 2007. Enzo has also risen in use in the United States, influenced by the fame of Argentinean footballer Enzo Fernández.{{cite web
