Cronus Name meanings & History

Derived from Kronos, the Greek god of time; meaning "time" or "wealth". Latinized form of the Greek Κρόνος (Kronos), possibly derived from the Indo-European root *(s)ker- meaning "to cut". Cronus was the Titan who fathered the Greek gods. As his wife Rhea gave birth to the gods, Cronus swallowed them fearing the prophecy that he would be overthrown by one of his children. However Rhea hid Zeus, her last child, who eventually forced his father to disgorge his siblings. Cronus and the rest of the Titans were then defeated by the gods and exiled. The name Cronus is most commonly used as a character or fictional name in literature, movies, and video games. It is not commonly used as a given name for baby boys.
