Meaning: Farmer

Gorius is a masculine Swiss name, likely to be of French influence, which isn’t surprising since a good percentage of the country’s population is French. A unique alternative to the name George, it shares the meaning of “farmer.” In its original Greek form, _georgos_ is widely believed to be an earlier title of the Greek god Zeus, who was initially worshipped as an agricultural god and a patron of crops and harvests. Choosing the name Gorius for your little one encourages them to nourish and nurture just as their namesake does.
