I am sorry if this sounds like a weird request, but I need names that are related / would honour the god Apollo, without using the actual names Apollo and Apollon (but theophoric names referring to Apollo are fine). Thank you! Far stretched ideas are fine
[name_m]Apollo[/name_m] rode on a [name_u]Swan[/name_u], so that could be fun (if this is a character even a last name?
[name_f]Abelone[/name_f]
Apolena
Apolenka
[name_m]Apolinar[/name_m]
Apolinary
[name_m]Apollinaire[/name_m]
Apollinaris
[name_f]Apolline[/name_f]
Apollodoros
Apollodotos
Apollodotus
[name_f]Apollonia[/name_f]
Apollonides
Apollonius
Apollophanes
Apolodoro
[name_f]Apolonia[/name_f]
[name_f]Polina[/name_f]
Polina?! I thought it was the Russian form of Paulina/e!
It is, but it can also come from Apollinariya!
I thought of [name_m]Phoebus[/name_m] and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] after [name_m]Phoebus[/name_m] [name_m]Apollo[/name_m], and [name_f]Lyra[/name_f] after Apollo’s lyre.
Here’s my farthest fetch: [name_u]Rocket[/name_u]. A bit much? Certainly. But sort of getting there? Sure!
I didn’t get how rocket is related, but thanks!
After the rocket, [name_m]Apollo[/name_m] 13. A famous launch in American history! The ship of course named for the god.
I have not thought about that at all. That is fun.
I’m surprised [name_m]Helios[/name_m], [name_m]Elio[/name_m], [name_u]Sunny[/name_u], etc., sun-related names, haven’t been mentioned! He’s the god of light and often associated with the sun. [name_f]Delphi[/name_f] could also work - that’s where Apollo’s most famous temple is located. Another option is [name_u]Loxley[/name_u], because [name_m]Apollo[/name_m] used to also be knows as Loxias. [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] / [name_u]Bay[/name_u] / [name_u]Laurel[/name_u] could work, since after the myth of [name_m]Apollo[/name_m] and [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] (laurel / bay leaf in greek), bay leaves started being used in Apollo’s worship. The [name_u]Cypress[/name_u], [name_u]Hyacinth[/name_u] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] are also plants associated with the god that could work as names. [name_f]Delia[/name_f], [name_f]Delilah[/name_f], etc. would be after his birth place of the island of [name_m]Delos[/name_m]. Oh, finally [name_f]Delphine[/name_f]! Because one of his names was [name_m]Apollon[/name_m] Delphinios!
I have [name_f]Violette[/name_f] in my list! And [name_f]Violetta[/name_f]. I also like [name_m]Elio[/name_m] and [name_m]Helios[/name_m] [name_f]Hyacinthe[/name_f], Daphnée / Daphné are also names I like.
