L. Flaminius Chilo was one of the moneyers for the year 109-108 BC. He is not otherwise known.
Gens Flaminia was a plebeian family of little importance. During the first five centuries of Rome, no mention is made of any member of the Flaminia gens.
The name Flaminius is evidently a derivative of flamen, and seems to have originally denoted a servant of a flamen. Chilo is found as a surname in a number of Roman families, and denotes a person with large or thick lips
