The masculine first name Gregory derives from the Latin name "Gregorius," which came from the late Greek name "" (Grgorios) meaning "watchful, alert" (derived from Greek "o" "grgorein" meaning "to watch"). * Through folk etymology, the name also became associated with Latin grex (stem greg) meaning "flock" or "herd". This association with a shepherd who diligently guides his flock contributed to the name's popularity among monks and popes. * Sixteen popes have used the name Gregorius, starting with Pope Gregory I (Gregory the Great). It is tied with Benedict as the second-most popular name for pope, after John. Because of this background, it is also a very common name for saints. Although the name was uncommon in the early 20th century, after the popularity of the actor Gregory Peck it became one of the ten most common male names in the 1950s and has remained popular since. |
