ArchivesRe: Olympia
in reply to a message by blue_belle
A little Googling showed me that the meaning of 'Olympos' is indeed unknown, almost famously so.
It is unfortunate that there are some websites about given names that can't have that, i.e. a name without a meaning. In such cases they tend to present some analogy or some guess as "meaning". I think that is the case with 'Olympos': Because that mountain was the seat of the Greek gods, "heavenly" sure makes for a good meaning, right?
Well, maybe not, but it's sooo tempting...
