History & Origin

Quindarius is a coined name in the creative African-American tradition, joining the popular Quin- opening (also seen in Quinton and Quindell) to the -darius of Darius, from the Old Persian for 'possessing goodness'. It gathers a stately, classical air from that ending.

Quindarius was always a rarity - only a few dozen boys a year at its peak in the early two-thousands - and reads as a Generation-Y coinage. Like many such names it stayed personal to the families who chose it rather than entering wider fashion.

Did you know? The -darius ending in Quindarius echoes the Persian emperor Darius, one of many classical roots that African-American coinages reworked into fresh, grand-sounding names.
