Aby Forename Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
An American pet-form of Abraham. Cf. Abe, q. v. ACHILLES. Rare in England but hardly rare though now rather uncommon in the United States, this name of the Greek hero—vanquisher of Hector—signifies, literally, ‘(he who is) without lips’, and, actually,—or so I conjecture,—‘the courageous one (who compresses his lips)’. Known in post-War England mostly in its French form: for who does not know Mrs. Agatha Christie’s delightful detective, Achille Poirot?
