Greek Baby Names

685 names with meanings: 445 girl names and 240 boy names.

Greek names come from one of the oldest naming traditions in Europe. Many are drawn from mythology, from virtues the ancient Greeks valued, or from words for nature, light and beauty.

Early Christians also used Greek widely because the New Testament was written in Greek, so many saints' names and well-loved classics have Greek roots.

Origins and meanings are traditional claims and can vary by source.
