Immortal, Eternal and Forever Names

Thanasis is a Greek masculine name, primarily used as a diminutive or familiar form of Athanasios, which means 'immortal' or 'eternal life.' The name has deep roots in Greek Orthodox tradition, as Saint Athanasios was an important 4th-century Alexandrian theologian and Church Father. While Athanasios is the formal version used in official settings, Thanasis is commonly used in everyday Greek life. The name gained some international recognition through Greek basketball player Thanasis Antetokounmpo. In Greece, it remains a traditional choice that connects modern families to their cultural and religious heritage. Though rare outside of Greek communities, its distinctive sound and meaningful etymology make it an interesting option for parents with Greek connections seeking authentic cultural names.

Ambrosius is a masculine name of Greek and Latin origin, derived from the Greek word "ambrosios," meaning "immortal" or "divine." It is the original Latin form of the more common Ambrose. The name carries significant historical weight, having been borne by Saint Ambrosius of Milan, an important 4th-century theologian and one of the four original doctors of the Catholic Church. Throughout European history, the name appeared among clergy, nobility, and scholars, maintaining associations with learning and spiritual devotion. While Ambrosius has never been widely popular in modern English-speaking countries, it retains appeal for parents drawn to names with classical roots and substantial historical significance. The name projects dignity and intellectual seriousness, with potential nicknames including Ambrose, Brose, or even Sio.
