Zeno

The meaning of Zeno is ‘gift of Zeus’ or ‘guest’. It is a name typically given to boys and is of Greek origin. It derives from the ancient Greek word ‘ḗnōn’ which means ‘consecrated to Zeus’. Zeus is one of the most well-known and influential Greek gods. He was the king of gods, as well as the god of thunder. He is also the son of Cronus and Rhea, and the father of mythical Greek figures, Perseus and Dionysus. The name Zeno is best known as the first name of Zeno of Elea, a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher. Another philosopher referred to him as 'incommensurably subtle and profound'. He formulated ‘Zeno's paradoxes’ that perplexed many philosophers and scientists. They are a set of four paradoxes based on the hypothesis of time and space continuity. Zeno is also the name of an ancient Greek physician who is credited with being the 'founder of stoicism'. He is often associated with another Greek physician named Galen.
