[Facts] Re: What is the origin of the name Synesius
in reply to a message by Roy
Pavlos may be right; Synesius may have Greek origins but, it almost has to be a Latin variation. I'm not familiar with that particular name but most names with an IUS ending are Latin.

Usually Greek names ending with -ios are rendered in Latin with an -ius. Examples include my patron god Priapos (Gr) - Priapus (Lat.).
