User-submitted Reference
This forename comes from the French and the Portuguese form of the Greek name Andreas (in Greek: Ἀνδρέας). The name derives from the Greek noun ἀνήρ anēr, with genitive ἀνδρός andros, which means 'man' (as opposed to 'woman'), thus meaning 'manly' and, as consequence, 'brave', 'strong', 'courageous', and 'warrior'.
