Ottaviano di Savona was a Benedictine monk and a Roman Catholic bishop who lived during the 11th and 12th centuries. Born into the noble house of Ivrea in Franche-Comté, he was the eldest son of Count William I of Burgundy. Although he initially studied law in Bologna to fulfill his father's wishes, he eventually pursued his religious vocation. After his father's death in 1087, he chose to join the monastery at Saint-Pierre-au-Ciel-d'Or in Pavia rather than inheriting his family's title.
