What Artiom means
Where Artiom comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Artiom comes to Poland from Russia, where Artyom is a workaday man's name. Its short meaning, dedicated to Artemis, reaches back to the Greek goddess of the hunt and to the older name Artemios. The recorded origin here is Hebrew, while the devotion inside the name belongs to that early Greek worship.
Russian Orthodoxy gave it a saint, Artemius, martyred in the fourth century, and a fixed day on the calendar. Artyom Anisimov, who has skated in the NHL, wears the modern form. Poland writes it Artiom, adjusting the letters to fit its own alphabet.
The Polish meaning reads poświęcony bogini Artemidzie. On a class register in Białystok, near the eastern border, the name draws no second look. Short and eastern. Behind the surname there is usually a family with ties running east.
Artiom keeps its Russian shape and its old sense, dedicated to Artemis.
