Pallas

This is a name I’ve loved for a while now. It’s a Greek name and a another name for the Goddess Athena. I love the sound of it and the meaning it has. I love so many Greek names, some that give me the same vibe as Pallas are Echo, Nyx, Hero, Vesper, and Sybil. What are your thoughts on this name? What are some middle names you can think of? :slightly_smiling_face:

I just looked it up…the facts check out :grinning:

That’s interesting, because [name_f]Athena[/name_f] is called Pallas.

I love [name_f]Pallas[/name_f] :slight_smile: It’s been a huge GP of mine until now, mainly because I never thought anybody else liked it … Great to hear you do!

Interesting, I’ve never heard this name before. Without knowing its history, I might think it was a twist on [name_u]Dallas[/name_u], or a unique spelling of Palace.

Speaking of which, I’m surprised there hasn’t been a celebrity baby [name_m]Palace[/name_m] (afaik) with all the Kings, Queens and Reigns out there!

Yay! I first heard it from the YouTube channel [name_u]Baby[/name_u] Name [name_f]Sunday[/name_f] and she also loved the name!

I originally thought it was a unique spelling of [name_m]Palace[/name_m], but after I learned the history I fell in love with the name. I think the fact that it sounds like [name_m]Palace[/name_m] gives it a royal feel :grin:

[name_f]Pallas[/name_f] is intriguing, distinctive and powerful.

[name_f]Athena[/name_f] is sometimes called [name_f]Pallas[/name_f] because of the honor name [name_f]Pallas[/name_f] [name_f]Athena[/name_f]. She was essentially named after her best friend whom she killed in a training accident. Basically, [name_f]Athena[/name_f] got distracted while she was fighting by looking at a shield called the [name_m]Aegis[/name_m]. Her friend couldn’t dodge in time and [name_f]Athena[/name_f] felt incredibly guilty. So she is sometimes referred to as [name_f]Pallas[/name_f] or [name_f]Pallas[/name_f] [name_f]Athena[/name_f] but only because of that friend.

(Sorry I was a [name_m]Rick[/name_m] [name_m]Riordan[/name_m] nerd and I couldn’t resist sharing. I love Greek mythology. :blush:)

Great! Pallas Eve is nice.

I think [name_f]Pallas[/name_f] is super cool, and I think it goes well with the other names you listed (Pallas and [name_u]Echo[/name_u] or [name_f]Pallas[/name_f] and [name_u]Hero[/name_u] especially are cool!). I’m not too familiar with Greek mythology; is it said just like “palace”?
