Persephassa Origin and Meaning

The name Persephassa is a girl's name.

Persephassa is a feminine name with ancient Greek origins, representing an alternative or earlier form of Persephone, the goddess of spring growth and queen of the underworld in Greek mythology. The name carries deep mythological significance, as Persephone was the daughter of Zeus and Demeter who was abducted by Hades. Persephassa embodies the duality of life and death, darkness and light, as she spent part of the year in the underworld (creating winter) and part on earth (bringing spring). This rare name maintains its exotic, mystical quality and appeals to parents drawn to classical mythology and unique names with historical depth. Despite its ancient roots, it remains extremely uncommon as a given name in modern times.
