As baby enters this brave new world, give them a name to match! Andrei is a boy's name of primarily Romanian and Russian origin, meaning "manly." Boasting more than one root, Andrei is a variation of the name Andrew which shares the same translation. Both alterations stem from the Greek name Andreas, meaning "brave" or "warrior," personifying ancient ideals of masculinity. Today, the name still stands strong as an empowering title, though what it means to baby is entirely what they wish it to be.
