Thinking about the name
Drew
Greek origin
“Originally a nickname for Andrew, itself derived from the Greek Andreas meaning 'strong' and 'manly,' Drew emerged as a standalone name in its own right. Short, punchy, and gender-neutral, Drew gained popularity as a given name in the mid-20th century, carrying both literary charm and athletic ease.”
