Unsolved:Eucrante
From HandWiki
In Greek mythology, Eucrante (Ancient Greek: Εὐκράντη, romanized: Eukrantê, lit. 'the bringer of fulfillment' or 'she who accomplishes/ grants success'[1][2]) was one of the 50 Nereids, sea-nymph daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris.[3][4]
Notes
- ↑ The name comes from two ancient Greek elements — Eu- (εὖ), meaning "well," "good," or "advantageous" and Kraino (κραίνω), meaning "to accomplish," "to fulfill," "to bring to pass," or "to bring to a successful end."
