The municipality of Selvino has around 2050 inhabitants, is located at an altitude of around 1,000 m above sea level and has a single hamlet, Foppa.

It is located in an open position, above an undulating plateau of the pre-Alpine mountain ridge that separates the Seriana Valley from the Serina Valley, a side of the wider Brembana Valley.

The origin of the name, according to the most reliable hypothesis supported by Bortolo Belotti in 955, should be found in the Latin SILVA: "forest", "scrub", "vegetation".
The mutation from the I of silva to the A of Salvino is confirmed in two Milanese toponyms collected by Boselli: SALVARAIA (from silva) and SALVANESCO (from silvano).

The most reliable etymology therefore derives from the late Latin "selvina" meaning small forest.
