English borrows a lot of words from other languages. In this case, the abbreviation ''no.'' for the word ''number'' comes from the numero symbol, No. or no. which is in turn derived from Latin numero. The numero sign or numero symbol, No./no. is a typographic abbreviation of the word number(s) indicating ordinal numeration, especially in names and titles.
