Otho, Otis. Otto is a masculine German given name. It originates as an Old High German short form (variants Audo, Odo, Udo) of Germanic names beginning in aud-, an element meaning wealth, prosperity. The name is recorded from the 7th century (Odo, son of Uro, courtier of Sigebert III).
Construction of the Fountain. Already in the fifteenth century a small Trevi Fountain was built here during the papacy of Nicholas V. In 1732, pope Clement XII commissioned Nicola Salvi to create a large fountain at the Trevi Square to replace the existing fountain.
The design of the trevi fountain is based on three architectural elements: a faÃ§ade made of travertine; statues of carrara marble; a see reef also made of travertine. In the middle there is the statue of Ocean, 5,8 meters high (16.4 feet high) carved by Pietro Bracci. The body is muscular inclining to fatness. He has long and abundant beard.
