Origin:

greek

Name Root:

eiríni > eirḗnē

Meaning:*

This name derives from the Ancient Greek “eiríni (ειρήνη) eirḗnē ‎(εἰρήνη),” meaning “peace, tranquility, harmony.” The Roman equivalent was “Pax.” Eirene in Greek Mythology was one of the Horae and the personification of peace. She is sometimes said to be the daughter of Zeus and Themis. Irene and its variants were also the names of an 8th-century Byzantine empress, as well as several saints. The name has always been trendy among the people of the Christian faith. In English, the name “Irene” did not become common until the 19th-century. In Greek mythology, the Horae (Greek: Ὧραι, ‘seasons’) were the goddesses of the seasons and the natural portions of time.

Name interpretation

The name Irene symbolizes a person’s tendency to continuous movement. «Egoza» and «fidget» in childhood, it practically does not change with age: the love of changing places, the inability and unwillingness to value stability in any form often become the cause of loneliness.

But loneliness is not a burden. On the contrary, it is often perceived as an obligatory attribute of freedom, which is for such a person the only way of existence, the basis of motivation, a “fetish”.

Appearance

You can be promiscuous when forming your own image. By and large, the quality and convenience of clothing is much more important to you than the conformity of its style to today’s fashion. The only rule that you should probably follow is to ensure that your costume does not destroy the impression of you as a person who deserves all kinds of trust. After all, that is the impression you want to make.

Irena name compatibility, manifestation of love

Irene, It’s not that you are completely incapable of manifestations of love and tenderness, but business comes first to you, and you will choose a partner, based mainly on how much they can share your life interests. Manifestations of strength of character, purposefulness and ambition mean immeasurably more to you than sensuality and external attractiveness. In a marriage, if such happens, you will first of all appreciate in a partner the ability to be imbued with your ideas and the ability to provide support.

Motivation

You strive to «embrace the immensity. » Your soul yearns for everything that a person can possess. And — in the maximum possible quantities. Therefore, the problem of choice, as such, for you, one might say, does not exist. You simply cannot refuse any offer that life makes you.

When making a decision, the wishes of others are taken into account, if they are, only as secondary factors: You are sure that if you feel good, then everyone else has nothing to complain about. This means that it is possible and necessary to force them to “go in a water team” with you, in the direction you have chosen.

And here is the opportunity to see everything from a different angle. You need assistance from outside, and above all — as a «restraining beginning.» Otherwise, you may want to «turn the earth».

But if you are forced to use other people’s opportunities, then you need to learn how to share the results. And the sooner you make a choice in favor of such a scheme of activity, the more chances you have to keep your soul clean and your heart healthy.

Characteristics of the name Irena

Numerous adventures, as a rule, provide you with your curiosity, restless character, propensity for risk, as well as the desire to learn as much as possible about the world around you and your place in it.

You quickly lose interest in what does not change and go in search of change, moreover, you are often attracted to places where, figuratively speaking, “even angels are afraid to set foot”. Such frivolity causes many problems for which you blame others or the «environment», but not yourself. However, your resourcefulness, sharp mind and quick reaction help you easily cope with the difficulties and troubles that have arisen. In addition, you have an innate respect for the law, which almost always keeps you from acting rashly or illegally. It often happens that in the course of your work you yourself have to monitor compliance with the laws. All these factors make you a very complex and somewhat contradictory person.

Alas, you can hardly be classified as a real family man, because you do not want to constantly bear the burden of responsibility — because this limits your love of freedom. And if the relationship, in your opinion, has lost its novelty and turned into a burden, you can easily break it off.
