Origin and meaning of Nikodem
Nikodem is the Polish form of Nicodemus, from the Greek Nikódēmos, made of níkē, 'victory,' and dêmos, 'people' — 'victory of the people.' It recalls the Nicodemus of the Gospels, the Pharisee who visited Jesus by night and became his disciple, venerated as a saint. Popular above all in Poland, where it has returned as a traditional, sonorous name, it has a full, decisive rhythm blending classical roots with strong character.
