About Andries
One of the many international forms of Andrew, Andries ultimately derives from the Greek andreios meaning "masculine" or "manly", though it may also be interpreted as meaning "strong". It appeared in the charts in the Netherlands back in the 2010, though its short form, Dries, has seen more recent popularity.
Also used in Flemish and Afrikaans, it has been notably borne by painter Andries Both, footballer manager Andries Jonker, politician Andries Nel, and footballer Andries Noppert.
Pronounced AHN-dreez.
