Amphilochos Name meanings & History

The name Amphilochos is derived from the Greek words 'amphi' meaning 'on both sides' and 'lochos' meaning 'a place for an army to stand or camp'. The combined meaning of Amphilochos is 'a warrior who can fight on both sides'. The first element of this name is derived from Greek ἀμφί (amphi) meaning "on both sides, in all directions, surrounding" as well as "around, about, near". The second element is derived from the Greek noun λόχος (lochos) meaning "ambush", a word that later came to signify a tactical sub unit of the ancient Greek army. The word is ultimately derived from the Greek verb λοχάω (lochao) meaning "to lie in wait for, to waylay" as well as "to snare".
