Name Root:
Skýlla
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Skýlla (Σκύλλα),” meaning “tear, rip, smashed to pieces.” In Greek mythology, Scylla was a monster that lived on one side of a narrow water channel, opposite its counterpart Charybdis. The strait’s two sides were within an arrow’s range of each other, so close that sailors attempting to avoid Charybdis would pass too close to Scylla and vice versa. The story was later adapted into a five-act tragic opera, Scylla et Glaucus (1746), by the French composer Jean-Marie Leclair.
