Greek boys name (we're not Greek)

[Toothy321]

Would love suggestions of Greek boys names that don't sound too out there if we're not Greek - we love many Greek names but feel they all sound a bit odd with the cultural connection...

Not in my world it fucking isnt.

Aris.

I worked with an obstetrician called Aris, he had the loveliest bedside manner, had such a lovely calming presence and these kind eyes.

He made me fall in love with the name.

My parents are Greek. My brothers are called Andreas, Solos and Panos if that's helpful.

Μου φαίνονται Κινέζικα

His name would have been Xaris - so basically Harry in English

All the English/greek boys I know have names like Loucas, Antonis, Markos, Andros (Andy), Marios. Christos, Mihalis (Michael), Nikos - all names that obviously have a common English alternative

I quite like Leander.

Don't think anyone has mentioned Jason.

These are all Roman names so Italian, not Greek!

Adonis is a good name but it's quite a lot to live up to, innit?

None of which are Greek ...

Balonios

Your “Arris” is cockney for your backside so it might depend on where you live as to how nice that name is!

No it was spelt Aris. Exactly like that.

Aris is a shorten version of Aristotelis
Nothing to do with harrys harrys is shorten for haralampos
