Reijo

1. a male given name
   • 2007, Maarit Verronen, Saari kaupungissa, Tammi, →ISBN, page 79:

     Mies sanoi olevansa Reijo. Hän vitsaili, että useimmat Reijot olivat edellistä sukupolvea. Ehkä olisi pitänyt muuttaa nimi vähän muodikkaammaksi.

     The man said he was named Reijo and joked that most Reijos were of the previous generation. Perhaps he should've changed to a more trendy name.

2. a Finnish surname transferred from the given name
