Subject: Greek equivalent to BARUCH and BENEDICT?
Author: Andy   (guest, 217.83.23.231)

Both BARUCH in Hebrew and BENEDIKTUS in Latin mean "blessed" in the first place, but also "praised". The Greek equivalent would be EULOGETOS - but is this a Greek name? Was it in antiquity? Is it nowadays?
All google brought up (I checked up to entry No 100 out of 367) was bible stuff, but obviously no name. If it isn't a name - why not?
