Phoroneus Name meanings & History
Greek mythology states that Phoroneus was the first king of the Peloponnesian city of Argos. He is credited with introducing many cultural practices and inventions such as fire, the first chariot, and the building of the first temple in Greece. The name has been associated with the idea of being a pioneer or an innovator. Possibly means "to bring help", derived from Greek φορεω (phoreo) "to bring, to carry, to bear" combined with Greek ὀνή (onē) meaning "help". Another possibility is that the name is derived from Greek φόρον (phoron) meaning "forum, market", or even from Greek φόρος (phoros) meaning "tribute, tax". In Greek mythology, Phoroneus was one of the sons of the river god Inachus. The name Phoroneus is not commonly used as a first name for babies.
