Agrippa

Agrippa is a masculine name of Greek origin whose initial meaning is considered lost to history. Etymologists theorize two possible meanings for the name: “wild horse” and “born feet first.” An uncommon choice today, Agrippa holds a rich and complex past borne by many figures. From the Greek astronomer Agrippa to the Israeli King Herod Agrippa, Roman general Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa, and Saint Agrippina of Mineo, this name has proven a favorite to the ancients despite its elusive definition.
