More Greek names

Kristoffer

The Scandinavian form of Christopher, derived from the Greek Christophoros, meaning "bearer of Christ," from Christos ("anointed one") and phoros ("to bear"). The name gained wide currency through the legend of Saint Christopher, who supposedly carried the Christ child across a river. Kristoffer is the standard spelling in Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.

Andrew

From the Greek Andreas, derived from aner/andros meaning "man" or "manly." It entered English via the Old French Andreu and Latin Andreas, and owes much of its lasting popularity to Saint Andrew, apostle of Christ and patron saint of Scotland, Russia, and Greece. The name has been in continuous English use since medieval times.

Helen

From the Ancient Greek Helenē, probably from helenos meaning "the bright one" or "the shining one," possibly connected to helios ("sun") or selene ("moon"). In Greek mythology Helen of Troy was the most beautiful woman in the world, whose abduction by Paris sparked the Trojan War. The name entered English through the Latin Elena and Helena, and has been in widespread use since the medieval period, sustained by both classical and Christian (Saint Helena) associations.

Tiffany

An English form of Theophania, from the Greek theos ("God") and phainein ("to appear" or "to show"), meaning "manifestation of God" or "Epiphany." The name was traditionally given to girls born on the Feast of Epiphany (January 6). It fell almost entirely out of use after the medieval period and was revived in the 20th century in America, becoming enormously popular in the 1980s, partly through cultural association with the luxury jeweller Tiffany & Co.

Alexis

Alexis is a Greek given name derived from the verb "alexein" meaning "to defend, to protect". It is related to the name Alexander and shares the same root. In ancient Greece, Alexis was primarily a masculine name, used by the 4th-century comic playwright Alexis of Thurii. In modern usage it has become gender-neutral, widely used as a feminine name in France, the United States, and English-speaking countries since the late 20th century.

Luke

From the Greek Loukas, meaning "man from Lucania" — a region of southern Italy — or possibly derived from the Latin lux ("light"). The name was borne by Saint Luke the Evangelist, author of the third Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles, traditionally believed to have been a physician and companion of Saint Paul. It has been in English use since the medieval period.
