Why is it masculine?
Braccio is masculine because it derives from Latin "bracchium," which was itself borrowed from Greek "brachion" (βραχίων). In Latin, "bracchium" was a second-declension masculine noun (not third-declension), and Italian maintained this masculine gender when the word evolved through sound changes (Latin -um > Italian -o).
