What does nimbo and nimbus mean? Nimbus is a Latin word meaning cloud or rain storm. The prefix nimbo- or the suffix -nimbus indicates a precipitating cloud; for example, a nimbostratus cloud is a precipitati â¦ ng stratus cloud, and a cumulonimbus cloud is a precipitating cumulus cloud.
One thing that can be said with conviction is that the nimbus was borrowed from the Near East (most likely Mithraism) to be utilized in Roman imagery; the Christians did not use a nimbus in their art until after the emperors started to use it.
