Meaning & History

The first element of this name is derived from the Greek adjective κλειτός (kleitos) meaning "renowned, famous". It is ultimately derived from the verb κλείω (kleio) meaning "to celebrate, to make famous", which is the Epic Greek form of the verb κλέω (kleo) meaning "to celebrate, to glorify, to make famous". As such, the first element is closely related to the Greek noun κλέος (kleos) meaning "glory". Lastly, the second element of this name is derived from Greek ἀνδρός (andros) meaning "of a man".

Also compare the Greek name KLEITANOR, which is closely related and essentially means the same.
