原The name Athanasius and the word "euthanasia" are distantly related, but they have opposite meanings. Only the "thanatos" (death) element is the same. Euthanasia means "good death" (in the sense of "painless death") but Athanasius means "without death, undying", or "immortal".
原Might this name's original bearer or its roots have anything to do with the verb "to euthanise" or simply "euthanasia", considering its lethal origins?
I don't know. I enjoy the name regardless. Bit of a mouthful for a human name, and sort of a bad omen were one to name a child, but this also means it's fun to abbreviate. Into a character name, even.
原One of my really good friends is named Athanasius. We call him "A" for short. When I first met him I had to ask him to repeat his name because I didn't understand it lol.
原Athanasius was a crazy person in Clive Barker's novel Imajica. He thought he was Jesus and did things like wear crowns of thorns and jump off roofs. (Athanasius, not Clive Barker.)
原As a bearer of the name Athanasius, I would like to leave some related names that are commonly used for Athansius, particularly in Australia. The most common name used for Athanasius in Australia is Arthur. This mistranslation most probably resulted from the similarity of the Australian pronunciation of Arthur (Ah-thah) with the first four letters of Athanasius. With first generation Greek-Australians now at child bearing age and wishing to maintain the Greek tradition of naming their first born sons after the father's father, new English versions of Athanasius are appearing. Most common are Athan, Nathan and Nass.

译 名字Athanasius和“安乐死”一词是遥远的相关的，但它们具有相反的含义。只有“thanatos”（死亡）元素是一样的。安乐死意味着“好死亡”（在“无痛死亡”的意义上），而阿塔纳修斯则意味着“没有死亡，不死”或“不朽”。

译 可能这个名字的原始持有人或其根源与动词“安乐死”或简单的“安乐死”有关，考虑到它的致命起因？我不知道。我喜欢这个名字。一个人的名字的一点点，一个坏的人是一个小孩的名字，但这也意味着它是有趣的缩写。成为一个字符的名字，甚至。

译 我的一个很好的朋友叫Athanasius。我们称之为“A”。当我第一次见到他时，我不得不要求他重复他的名字，因为我不明白它的哈哈。

译 Athanasius是Clive Barker的小说“Imajica”中的疯狂人物。他以为他是耶稣，做了像荆棘冠，跳上屋顶的东西。 （Athanasius，不是Clive Barker。）

译 这是一个伟大的名字！我命名了我的第一个孩子Athan，这意味着领导，智慧，触觉，长寿，尊重父母。
And it means leadership, intelligence, tactful, long-life, respect to the parents.

译 作为Athanasius的持有人，我想留下一些常用于Athansius的相关名称，尤其是在澳大利亚。在澳大利亚用于Athanasius的最常用的名字是Arthur。这种错误翻译最有可能是由于亚瑟（Ah-thah）的澳大利亚发音与Athanasius的前四个字母的相似性。第一代希腊 - 澳大利亚人现在在育儿年龄，并希望保持希腊传统命名他们的第一个出生父亲父亲后的儿子，Athanasius的新英文版本出现。最常见的是Athan，Nathan和Nass。
