Biblical: A woman who heard Paul’s defense at the Athenian Areopagus
(Mars’ Hill:
the open air supreme court of Athens.)
and became a believer. (Ac 17:33, 34) Damaris possibly was not a Greek, in
view of the fact that in Athenian society women normally remained in seclusion.
Since Damaris is the only woman named, she may have been of some prominence.
There is no valid basis for concluding that she was married to Dionysius,
simply because the two are mentioned together.

Origin: (Greek, Latin, Biblical)
Pronunciation: (DAM-a-ris,
DAM-uh-ris, duh-MAR-iss)
Gender: Female
This is a pretty name with delicate
meanings. A good nickname could be Dama *see on list of posts* which is its own stand alone name. I also love any name of
anyone who was associated with Paul in the bible as Paul is one of my favorite
biblical people.
