Thinking about the name
Alastor
Scottish Gaelic / Greek origin
“This name carries dual associations: the Scottish/Gaelic root meaning 'defender of men' aligns with Alastair variants, while 'Alastor' also references Greek mythology as a vengeful spirit or fury. The name has dark, dramatic literary weight, evoking both protection and otherworldly intensity. Parents selecting Alastor typically appreciate mythological depth and an edgy, mysterious character.”
