Cassandra is Greek in Origin.
Cassandra is a feminine given name from Ancient Greek Kassandra (Κασσάνδρα), usually analyzed as kekasmai “to excel, shine” + anēr/andros “man,” yielding senses like “she who shines/excels among men.” In Greek myth, Cassandra is the Trojan princess and seer gifted by Apollo with prophecy and cursed never to be believed, a story that gives the name its enduring association with prescient yet unheeded warnings.
The name entered Latin as Cassandra and moved through medieval and Renaissance Europe, finding renewed favor in English during the 17th century’s classical revival and experiencing a late-20th-century surge in the United States and other Anglophone countries. International variants include Kassandra (Greek), Casandra (Spanish), Cassandre (French), Cassandra (Italian and Portuguese), and Кассандра (Russian). Common diminutives and short forms are Cass, Cassie, Sandra, Sandy, and Andra; modern spellings such as Kasandra and Kassondra also occur.
