Georgios Tzanos
Georgios (, , ) is a Greek name derived from the word ''georgos'' (, , "farmer" lit. "earth-worker"). The word ''georgos'' (, ) is a compound of ''ge'' (, , "earth", "soil") and ''ergon'' (, , "task", "undertaking", "work"). It is one of the most usual given names in Greece and Cyprus. The name day is 23 April (St George's Day). The English form of the name is George, the latinized form is ''Georgius''. It was rarely given in England prior to the accession of George I of Great Britain in 1714. The Greek name is usually anglicized as ''George''. For example, the name of ''Georgios Kuprios'' is anglicized as George of Cyprus, and latinized as ''Georgius Cyprius''; similarly George Hamartolos (d. 867), George Maniakes (d. 1043), George Palaiologos (d. 1118). In the case of modern Greek individuals, the spelling ''Georgios'' may be retained, e.g. Georgios Christakis-Zografos (1863–1920), Georgios Stanotas (1888–1965), Georgios Grivas (1897–1974), Georgios Alogoskoufis (b. 1 ...

Diego Davy Vandeschrick
Diego is a Spanish masculine given name. The Portuguese equivalent is Diogo. The name also has several patronymic derivations, listed below. The etymology of Diego is disputed, with two major origin hypotheses: ''Tiago'' and ''Didacus''. Etymology ''Tiago'' hypothesis Diego has long been interpreted as variant of ''Tiago'' (Brazilian Portuguese: '' Thiago''), an abbreviation of ''Santiago'', from the older ''Sant Yago'' "Saint Jacob", in English known as Saint James or as ''San-Tiago''. This has been the standard interpretation of the name since at least the 19th century, as it was reported by Robert Southey in 1808 and by Apolinar Rato y Hevia (1891). The suggestion that this identification may be a folk etymology, i.e. that ''Diego'' (and ''Didacus''; see below) may be of another origin and only later identified with ''Jacobo'', is made by Buchholtz (1894), though this possibility is judged as improbable by the author himself. ''Didacus'' hypothesis In the later 2 ...
