"If male, Titus." "Dad, why Titus?" "Because Titus in Latin means fire." "What about women?" "If it's a girl, she will be named Hestia. It's a Greek name that means Goddess of Fire and Hearth."

It's expected really, after all, Luca had gone all out of his way to make sure Iris and the baby would be safe and sound. Iris looks at her fiance and daughter, their baby girl is already responding well to her father. Iris giggles sweetly as her daughter snuggles closer to the love of her life. "What do you think we should name her?" Luca smiles softly, "Hmmm….. I was thinking something Greek-ish. Just like your name, Iris goddess of the rainbow." Iris giggles again, a tired smile on her face. "Oh, yeah! How about…. Olympia?" Luca smiles lovingly at his wife- to- be. "I think that's absolutely beautiful, baby. Olympia Magdalene Harald."

JULIE "Yeah, sure. Call me Nick or Nicholas," he suggests and heat coats my cheeks when I realize he just asked me to use his pet name if I like. "Okay.. so how about — um… Nick?" I say, almost whispering the words. I am not sure if I sound pleasant or nervous. Whatever it is, I am surely nervous right now. His name is pretty, to be honest. Nicholas — a Greek name, if the knowledge is still in my mind. And it means the "victory of people". It is a strong and bold name, perfect for a bold and humble man like him.

How could any of them be connected to a bigwig? "This cannot be that—right? What is his name, boss?" Jason asked, trembling. "You think I am privileged enough to know that? All I was told was that the man's surname was 'Grimwald.' Now fix this, or else!" Jason went pale. That was the surname of the old man the young man had called his father. "M-Mr. Grimwald, I... I am sorry! I did not know you were an elite! Please forgive me!" Jason cried. His bravado had vanished.

"I was thinking of names that carry a sense of power and unity. How about naming them Leonidas, Maximus, and Valerius?" Zara pondered the names, a smile playing on her lips. "They're strong names, just like you envisioned. Leonidas, Maximus, and Valerius—it suits them perfectly." Alexander, relieved and pleased with her response, continued, "And each name carries a story of bravery and strength. Leonidas, like the Spartan king, symbolizes courage; Maximus, inspired by the Gladiator, signifies greatness; and Valerius, a tribute to valor and resilience." Zara, touched by the thoughtful choices, leaned against Alexander. "I love them. Our boys will grow up knowing the power of their names and t

Can't I just casually call him my love with no strings attached? Actually, a couple or more strings were attached, but what does it matter? " Oh, I meant um....................... I meant my Lord, not my love", I said with an awkward smile but the old lad was still staring at me in confusion, " seems like you don't know the meaning of your name again. In ancient Greek, the name Basil means royal, and in respect to that I called you my Lord", I said, trying my best to sound as educative as possible, but the expression on his face was still not something that I wanted, " come on Baz, you have a poor sense of humor", I said, tapping him on the chest and laughing hysterically.

Jaxsen smiled in return and nodded. “What’s your name?” “Basil. I hate it.” Basil frowned in disdain. Jaxsen grinned. “I like it. It means ‘royal and kingly’. It’s a Greek name. St. Basil was the Great Bishop of Caesarea in the latter half of the fourth century.” Basil smiled. “Wow. I didn’t know that. That’s pretty cool.”

Georgia decided to try and lighten the mood. “So. We know now that you’re a Lycan and I’m a Luna. Guess there’s only one thing left for us to do now.” Hayden turned to her with a quizzical expression. “What’s that?” “We gotta pick out a cool wolf name for you.” Hayden laughed. It felt good to hear the sound of it again. “Hmm okay. How about Eros, and you could be Psyche?” Georgia thought about it. “I know Eros was the Greek God of Love, right? Cupid was his Roman counterpart.”

“I don’t know if I like Wisdom knowing more about us than we do about her.” Hermes taps the table “I like her. The Greek word for Wisdom is "σοφία" (sophía). Which translates to "clever, skillful, intelligent, and wise. Now I see why Father gave her that name. I agree with him, it suits her.” “Like or dislike my niece is still up in the air. But I sure as hell respect her.” Ares leans back in the chair. “That’s something I haven’t said about anyone.”

Storm argued. “Well, Cyrus is a Greek name, and it means Sun. So fuck you.” Storm laughed, “you are named after the sun, yet you mock my fucking name?” Argo just sat there with a big grin on his face, watching the thing unfold, while his daughter Inara was drooling in his arms. Mace was drinking from Mila again. “Are you both done?” he asked after a while. “Because Inara’s name was actually the surprise, you idiots.”
