what does draco mean in greek
This is a wonderful name for Harry Potterâs antagonist at Hogwarts. Itâs also a fine example of a characteronym, a name that gives an impression or feeling close to who it is attached to. The origin of the name should be clear. Draco is Latin for dragon, ultimately from the ancient Greek drakÅn, meaning serpent. Draco is also the name of a constellation of stars, and of the first lawgiver in ancient Athens, which is where we got the word draconian from.
