I personally think that this entry should be amended to reflect the fact that Evangelos is the modern Greek form of the ancient Greek name Euangelos (written as Εὐάγγελος in Greek and variantly transcribed in the Latin alphabet as Euaggelos). The name was used in Greek mythology as well as by actual (i.e. real) ancient Greek men:

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelos (in English; mentions the usage of the name in Greek mythology as well as in real life)
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ancient_Greeks#E (in English; see Euangelus, which is a latinization of the name)

My name is Evangelos. This name has served me well, growing up I never was made fun of. I usually go by Evan for short. When I was growing up family called me Vagelis. I have never ran into another Evangelos but I know there are more out there. If you want to name your child this I recommend it 100%.

This name is a little too long for my taste, but it's overall a nice name. I know an Evangelos, but until recently few people knew his real name, for everyone calls him "Vaggeli", and he's registered as Vaggeli at the school. How's that for a nickname?

It's a little strange. I have a friend whose middle name is "Sakkie" and is supposed to come from this name. I've never heard of anybody being named this!
