Names That Mean Justice

Flowing and intriguing, Eurydice is a name from Greek mythology, borne by the wife of musician Orpheus. After she is poisoned by a snake and condemned to the underworld, Orpheus attempts to rescue her, but fails after breaking the condition set by Hades that he mustn't look back at her.

Meaning "wide justice", Eurydice has provided creative inspiration in the arts, namely as the subject of operas by Monteverdi, Haydn and Gluck, an eponymous play by Jean Anouilh, and paintings by Titian, Rubens and Poussin. The myth has also provided inspiration for Tennessee William's drama Orpheus Descending, David Almond's novel A Song for Ella Grey<//em>, Céline Sciamma's film Portrait of a Lady on Fire and the song Talk by Hozier. 
 In pop culture, it turns out that in the U.K. TV cult favorite Absolutely Fabulous, the outrageous Patsy's full name is Eurydice Colette Clytemnestra Dido Bathsheba Rabelais Patricia Cocteau Stone.
 
Some may see the name as a heavy choice but with weighty four-syllable Greek myth names like Persephone in style, could Eurydice become a more usable option? With nicknames Edie, Dizzy, Riri or Cece perhaps? In fact, 10 girls were given the name in a recent year in the US: still a small number but significantly more girls than previous years.
 
The modern Greek form is Evridiki (ehv-ree-DHEE-kee) which could get you nickname Kiki too.
