If it had been up to my mother, I would have been named Andreas (a Greek name, Ανδρεας derives from ανηρ (aner) "man" (genitive ανδρος (andros) "of a man"), but I also found that it means "the one who is brave")
Too bad she accepted my grandparent's suggestion.
My surname means "a Bulgarian" in Serbian.

Is there also an english form of that surname?
