Origin and meaning of Pavlos
Pavlos is the Greek form of the Latin Paulus, 'small, humble'. Its widespread popularity comes from Saint Paul the Apostle, who preached extensively in Greece and founded some of the earliest Christian communities there, as well as from two modern Greek kings named Paul. The name blends strong religious weight with a short, elegant sound, still widely loved across all regions of Greece.
