Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno je latinizovanou podobou gréckeho mena Neandros (Νέανδρος), utvoreného zo slov neos (νέος – nový, mladý) a anér (ἀνήρ, genitív andros – muž). Doslovne teda znamená „nový muž“, prípadne „mladý muž“. Rozšírilo sa aj ako humanistické priezvisko, najmä ako grécky preklad nemeckého priezviska Neumann.
