Origin and meaning of Myrto
Myrto comes from the Greek myrtos (μύρτος), 'myrtle', a plant sacred to Aphrodite in classical mythology and a symbol of love, beauty, and victory. The name has ancient roots: Myrto is also recorded as a figure connected to Socrates in some historical sources. Chosen in Greece for its botanical elegance and tie to Mediterranean nature, it remains a refined name, rare outside the country.
