Byzantine names

[Ramses II CP]

Hah! If you search for 'Vissarionas' and meaning on Google one of my posts is the top result. Guess I'll have to make my own meaning, eh?

[_Tristan_]

Yes, Ramses or find somebody with enough fluency in Ancient Greek to derive meaning from your name, if there is some meaning to be found...

[Ituralde]

Ah, googling the name, why didnt I think of that.

According to these sources:

Pavlos will get on the family tree, get a son named Oscar, who gets a son named Luke Chrysovergos who will become Emperor and Patriarch of the Greeks!

Strange links those up there too. Couldn't find an Emperor Luke anywhere else, ah well. Just have to alter history I guess. Yeah, because we're strictly following history, that's what we do here...

Nice list!

So, I have "ressurected" uh? I wonder how I can tie that in a story, especially with Anastasios meaning "ressurection"...

A part from that, it was interesting reading what most of the character's name meant, gives a new perspective.

I think Anna has "resurrected" lots of Senators, mine included.

New perspective indeed!

[Privateerkev]

I think Anna has "resurrected" lots of Senators, mine included.

Then how does that jive with Anastasios's "resurrection"?

[Askthepizzaguy]

Perhaps Anastasios is hiding something underneath his sticharion...

I will not be volunteering to look.
