Socrates: History, Meaning and Uncommon Usage

Socrates is a remarkably uncommon given name in the United States and globally, primarily known through its historical connection to the ancient Greek philosopher. Originating from Greek elements meaning 'safe strength', it was a relatively common name in ancient Athens but declined in usage afterward. The name is almost exclusively masculine, carrying a strong association with intellectualism and wisdom. Its mood is serious and contemplative, evoking a sense of gravitas and deep thought. While not a popular choice, it remains a powerful and distinctive name with a rich cultural heritage. It’s a name that speaks to a legacy of questioning and the pursuit of knowledge.
