Andru

Meaning of Andru

Andru—think Andrew wearing a jaunty beret—feels at once familiar and fresh. Stemming from the ancient Greek name Andreas, which means “manly” or “warrior,” it carries a legacy of courage and leadership reminiscent of the apostle Andrew’s adventurous spirit. Whether pronounced in Spanish as AHN-droo (/ˈandɾu/) or in English as AN-droo (/ˈændruː/), it rolls off the tongue with confident ease. In the United States, this spirited variation has been quietly climbing the charts—landing in the low 900s with just under ten newborns each year—making it a choice for parents seeking something distinctive yet warmly recognizable. It’s the kind of name that tips its hat to tradition while striking out boldly on a new path, inspiring a little spark of bravery every time it’s spoken.
