What Does My Name Mean?

What does the name Kassandra mean? What is the best story behind the Name?

  • I am a man. age 53 y o on my next birthday in May. i Like the name Kassandra not Cassandra or not Cassie. People ask if I have a name for my baby in the oven?? I say she will be Kassandra. is this name a male name? Id there any ancient story from History about this name? does this sound too odd for you? be truthful please?

  • Answer:

    Kassandra is an alternative spelling of the ancient Greek name Cassandra. The meaning of the name is foreteller of bad things. Cassandra was the daughter of king Priam and queen Hecuba of Troy, and sister of Paris. One of the Greek gods, Apollo fell in love with her and granted her the gift to see the future. But as she didn't return his love, he cursed her, so that no one would believe in her predictions. Hope I helped ;)

Kassandra is used predominantly in the English and German languages. It is derived from Old Greek origins. Kassandra is a variant form of the name Cassandra (English and German). In Greek mythology Kassandra was the daughter of King Priam and Queen Hecuba of Troy. She was blessed with the gift of prophecy by Apollo, but when she spurned his advances he cursed her so nobody would believe her prophecies. After the fall of Troy she was taken by the Greek warrior Agamemnon but murdered by his jealous wife Klytaimnestra.
