Meaning & History
Latinized form of Greek Ἀδείμαντος (Adeimantos) meaning "fearless, dauntless", derived from ἀ (a), a negative prefix, and the verb δειμαίνω (deimaino) meaning "to be frightened". This was borne by a brother of Plato. This was also the name of a Corinthian admiral at the Battle of Salamis in 480 BC.
