[Facts] Re: Thanks, Pavlos! Very elucidating! Andy ;—)
Interesting, indeed! Must confess myself bemused at the thought of the blessed St Aphrodite ... And thanks for the Eutychios info! A friend of mine (Dimitra) is married to Eftychios Eftychis, or maybe it's Eftychis Eftychios; I find him quite pleasant, though he rather resembles Prof. Snape in the HP movies, but not quite up for a double happiness name award.Dimi has never forgiven him for insisting on naming their second son Creon, for family reasons. Not the kind of myth she cares to perpetuate!

Oh yes, St Aphrodite is celebrated is celebrated every September 1. Makes churchgoing a temptation! My compliments to Eftychios Eftychis (I bet he hails from Cyprus!)for naming his son Creon -- just tell him to keep his son at a safe distance from Medea :P
