Meaning & History

Means "born of Athena" from the name of the goddess Athena combined with Greek γενής (genes) meaning "born". St. Athenogenes was a bishop as well as the author of the hymn Phos Hilaron which is used in Byzantine vespers liturgy. He died by burning with ten disciples at Sebaste. As Athenogenes entered the flames, he sang the Phos Hilaron in joy. He was martyred in the reign of Emperor Diocletian.
