Mitică

Mitică is a boy’s name of Romanian and Greek origin. It’s a shortened form of Dumitru, which derives from the Ancient Greek name Dēmḗtrios, meaning “of Demeter.” In Greek mythology, Demeter is the goddess of corn, grain, the harvest, the earth, and agriculture. When her daughter Persephone was abducted by Hades, god of the underworld, Demeter neglected her duties, leading to a period where nothing grew. Persephone later divided her years between the earth and the underworld, and during the times she was on earth with her mother, the plants grew again. This was how the seasons came into being. If you’re looking for an earthy, nature-inspired name for baby, Mitică could be the perfect choice! Other variants of this name include Demetrius, Dimitar, Dmitri, Dimitri, Dmitriy, Demetrio, and more.
