Andrick
Andrick Origin and Meaning
Andrick is a masculine name with Germanic and Scandinavian roots, functioning as a variant of the more common Andrik or a diminutive form of Andrew. The name ultimately derives from the Greek 'Andreas,' meaning 'manly' or 'brave.' The suffix '-rick' or '-rik' in Germanic naming traditions often indicates 'ruler' or 'powerful,' adding strength to the name's meaning. While uncommon in most English-speaking countries, Andrick has seen some usage in parts of Northern Europe and occasionally in Hispanic communities as an alternative to Enrique. The name carries associations of strength and leadership while maintaining a distinctive sound that sets it apart from more common Andrew derivatives. Its rarity makes it appealing to parents seeking an uncommon name with traditional roots.
