Meaning & History

Old Persian form of the Avestan name Ātarepāta (also found written as Āterepāta), which is derived from Avestan ātar "fire" combined with Avestan pāiti "to protect, to defend" or Avestan pāyu "protector". As such, the name either means "protected by the fire" or "protector of the fire".
