What my name means?

My last name is Ambrose, so I%26#039;m a little confused because a lot of last name websites I visit gives out different origins. Some say that it%26#039;s English, while others says Its Russian or Greek.





So I was wondering what my surname%26#039;s origin really is and what it means.





If it helps, my parentage from my father%26#039;s side is Greek-Russian.





Thanks!

What my name means?
i think it%26#039;s greek and that it is taken from the word %26quot;ambrosia%26quot; which was the name of food that gods ate in greek mythology stories.
Reply:A last name can come from many different places. The way to know what your name means is to figure out what race you are or what your background is and then research it in that race%26#039;s meaning of the word. And if you are from mutable races or backgrounds just try to search within them for the word or meaning. And if their are mutable meanings than you may have to use them all.

Reply:from Greek ambrotos, %26quot;immortal%26quot;. Ambrosia was called the %26quot;nectar of the gods%26quot; as it could provide immortality.
Reply:Perhaps there is a connection with the spread of the Eastern Orthodox Church from the Eastern Mediterranean and into Slavic lands 1,000 years ago or so. There are lots of examples of Greek/Mediterranean influence...the Russian alphabet is based on the Greek alphabet, for example.
Reply:Ambrose comes from ambrosia, the food of the Greek gods.





They drank nectar. Some words are cross cultural though, for


instance: From the Roman word Caesar, we get the German


word, kaiser. The Persians made the same word into shah.


While the Russians came up with, depending on spelling preference, Czar, Csar, Tsar or Tzar!
