Adonis

Adonis is a Greek name traditionally associated with the masculine gender. The meaning of Adonis is ‘handsome’ or ‘extremely good-looking’. In Greek mythology, Adonis was a mortal man who fell in love with Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty and love. Adonis was infatuated, but he was also respected and coveted by many for his gorgeous appearance and fantastic hunting abilities.
