Шаблон:Redirect Шаблон:Infobox given name Hector (Шаблон:IPAc-en) is an English, French, Scottish, and Spanish given name. The name is derived from the name of Hektor, a legendary Trojan champion who was killed by the Greek Achilles. The name Hektor is probably derived from the Greek ékhein, meaning "to have", "to hold", "to check", "restrain". In Scotland, the name Hector is sometimes an anglicised form of the Scottish Gaelic Eachann, and the pet form Heckie is sometimes used. The name of Sir Ector, the foster father of King Arthur, is also a variant of the same.

Etymology

In Greek, Шаблон:Transl is a derivative of the verb ἔχειν ékhein, archaic form *Шаблон:Lang-grc ('to have' or 'to hold'), from Proto-Indo-European *seɡ́ʰ- ('to hold'). Шаблон:Transl, or Шаблон:Transl as found in Aeolic poetry, is also an epithet of Zeus in his capacity as 'he who holds [everything together]'. Hector's name could thus be taken to mean 'holding fast'.
