Name Root:
erékhthō khthṓn > Erikhthónios
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Erikhthónios (Ἐρῐχθόνῐος),” composed of two elements: “erékhthō (ἐρέχθω)” (break) plus “khthṓn (χθών)” (ground, soil, surface of the earth, earth, world, land, country). In turn, the name means “earth-shaker.” In Greek mythology, King was a legendary early ruler of ancient Athens, Greece. According to some myths, he was autochthonous (born of the soil, or earth) and raised by the goddess Athena. Early Greek texts do not distinguish between him and Erectheus, his grandson, but by the fourth century BC, during Classical times, they are distinct figures.
