Meaning & Origins
Latin form of Greek Dēmētrios ‘follower of Demeter’, classical goddess of fertility. This name was borne by several early Christian martyrs; its huge popularity in eastern Europe is due in particular to the fame of a 4th-century saint martyred under Diocletian. For some reason, it never achieved much popularity in western Europe.
