Name Root:
ANTÍ ÉRŌS > ANTÉRŌS
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Antérōs (Ἀντέρως),” composed of two elements: “antí ‎(ἀντί)” (against, hostile to, opposition, prevention) plus “Érōs (Ἔρως)” (erotic, the God of love and sexual desire). In turn, the name means “contrary to love, unrequited love.” In the religion of ancient Greece, Anteros is the son of Ares and Aphrodite. Anteros is the God of correspondent love; other experts say of unrequited love and therefore, “vindictive” and still others (also) of effeminate love.
