Heraklees Origin and Meaning

The name Heraklees is a boy's name of Greek origin.

Heraklees is a masculine name that represents a variant spelling of Heracles (Latin: Hercules), the legendary hero of Greek mythology known for his extraordinary strength and courage. The name derives from combining 'Hera' (the Greek goddess) and 'kleos' (glory), ironically meaning 'glory of Hera' despite the goddess's antagonism toward the hero in mythology. While Hercules has seen occasional use in English-speaking countries, Heraklees with this spelling remains extremely rare. The name carries powerful associations with strength, bravery, and perseverance, referencing Heracles' famous twelve labors and his eventual ascension to godhood. Parents choosing this name might appreciate its classical roots and heroic connotations.
