Androcles' Character
I07 - Meaning
Androcles first name means 'Glory Of A Man'. Within the particular area he was born in, the village of Setra, and the surrounding countries under that particular monarchy, children are often given ancient Greek or Roman names to match the given theme of the area. It's commonplace for most people and their children to have such sounding names, even if how they dress looks anything but Greek or Roman. Nevertheless, they draw inspiration from it and do what they please with such inspiration.
Androcles was given the name because his mother particularly liked the ring to it, and his father thought it would fit and make him appear a little more masculine, since he came into the world with a head of pinkish hair. Nevertheless, it was the name the young lad was given and he now proudly uses it today, though a nickname was given to him at a young age since it is a longer name. Andy, for short.
