wiktionary
From Old French given name Milo, of problematic origin, possibly from an unknown Germanic element, or a short form of Slavic names beginning with mil- "grace, favor". The English form is associated by folk etymology with Latin mīles(“soldier”). As a surname, it is also derived from a Middle English[Term?] form of Michael.
