Paternian or Paternianus (Italian: San Paterniano) is the name of an Italian saint. There are two figures Paternian of Bologna and Paternian of Fermo who are considered to be the same person. The first was bishop of Bologna from around 450 to 470. The second was a native of Fermo who escaped to the mountains during the persecutions of Christians by Diocletian.
