Copied from the FE Wiki:

A 'fado' is a sad Portuguese folksong. The word comes from the latin 'fatum' meaning 'fate.'

I don't care if that's really where his name came from. But this is so awesome I need to use this somehow. Somehowwwwwwwwwwwwww.

This is also fun:

'Vigarde' probably derives from the word 'Vígríðr' which in Norse mythology is the field on which the battles of Ragnarök will take place.

Because Norse mythology rocks.

Fado was also a character in Legend of Zelda: the Wind Waker. I always thought it might have been an in-reference.
