Epistrophos Name meanings & History

The name Epistrophos does not have a direct meaning as it is not a conventional Greek name. The word "epistrophos" in Greek means "a turning back or return.". Derived from Greek ἐπί (epi) meaning "upon, on" combined with Greek στρόφος (strophos) meaning "twisted band, twisted cord" as well as "rope". The latter element is etymologically related to the Greek verb στροφάω (strophao) meaning "to turn hither and thither" as well as "to rotate, to twist". Also compare the Greek verb στρέφω (strepho) meaning "to turn (around), to direct" and the English word catastrophe. Due to its rarity and unconventional nature, it is unlikely that the name Epistrophos is used as a first name for babies in most cultures.
