Andronike is Greek in Origin.
From Ancient Greek Ἀνδρονίκη (Andronikē), Andronike combines anēr/andros “man, warrior” with nikē “victory,” yielding the sense “victory of the warrior” or “man’s victory.” It is the feminine counterpart to Andronikos, a name borne by several Byzantine emperors, and appears - though rarely - in Classical and Byzantine records. The name’s heroic, triumphal connotations echo the cult and symbolism of Nike, making it a learned, Hellenic choice with antique gravitas.
Modern Greek uses the spelling Ανδρονίκη, typically transliterated Androniki. Related forms and adaptations include Andronika (found in some Slavic and Balkan contexts), Andronica (Latinized/Romance), and the rarer Andronice; French-style Andronique occasionally appears in historical literature. Diminutives include Niki and Andri, with Roni also possible. Today Andronike remains uncommon, seen sporadically in Greece, Cyprus, and the Greek diaspora, and sometimes revived for its classical resonance and its message of strength and hard-won success.
Andronike is exceptionally rare. There are only 1 recorded use on record, spread over 1 country.
