List of Greek versions of names
Hellenisation of names (Greek: Εξελληνισμός) is the procedure which alters names in order to be introduced to Greek grammar and conjugation. Usually it took place in books published between 16th and 19th century. Some of the names are still used while others are very rarely if ever used. In order for a Greek name to appear in this list it must be used by at least 3 printed books.
