Meaning and history
Andriy is the Ukrainian form of Andrew. Andrew comes from Greek Andreas, derived from andreios, “manly” or “brave,” itself related to aner, “man.” Saint Andrew, one of Jesus’s apostles and traditionally the first-called disciple, gave the name major Christian significance and is especially important in Eastern Christianity. The Ukrainian spelling reflects established transliteration. Notable bearers include footballers Andriy Shevchenko and Andriy Yarmolenko.
