Skamandros Name meanings & History

Skamandros is derived from the Greek word for "rushing" or "violent," and was the name of the river that flowed outside the walls of Troy in Greek mythology. The meaning of this name is uncertain. The second element looks like it is derived from Greek ανδρος (andros) meaning "of a man", but there are sources who doubt this. The first element is more difficult to pinpoint: it could be derived from Greek σκάζω (skazo) "to limp, to stumble (over an obstacle)" or from Greek σκαιός (skaios) meaning "left(-handed)" or "awkward". The meaning of the name might then perhaps be "limping man" or "awkward man". Skamandros is a name that is not commonly used and is most likely to be chosen by parents who are looking for a unique and meaningful name with a strong cultural reference.
