Name Root:
(Póntos) (pompe > Pomties)
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Póntos (Πόντος),” meaning “the sea, marine.” In Greek mythology, Pontos was an ancient, pre-Olympian god of the sea, one of the Greek primordial deities. According to the Greek poet Hesiod, Pontus was Gaia’s son and was born without coupling. Pontus is a historical Greek designation for a region on the Black Sea’s southern coast, located in modern-day northeastern Anatolia, in Turkey. The name has a correlation with the Etruscan and Oscan “pompe > pomties” which means “five,” from the Greek “penta (πεντα),” indicating the fifth born. Pontius Pilate was the fifth prefect of the Roman province of Judaea, from 26–36 AD. He is best known as the judge at the trial of Jesus and the man who authorized the crucifixion of Jesus. As prefect, he served under Emperor Tiberius.
