What is the meaning of the name Endres ?

The baby name Endres is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈɛn.drɛs/ (EN-dres).

Endres is Germanic, Scandinavian in Origin.

Endres is a South German and Swiss German form of Andreas, carried into regional speech through the spread of St. Andrew’s cult. The name goes back to Greek Andréas, from anēr/andrós, “man; manly, brave,” often interpreted as “warrior.” In German areas it typically sounds like “END-res.”

Medieval parish and guild records show Endres across Franconia, Swabia, Alsace, Tyrol, and the early Swiss Confederacy, with spellings such as Enders and Endris. By the early modern era it endured chiefly as a hereditary surname (Endres, Enders, Endress, Endriss), while the standard given name reverted to Andreas. Today Endres survives as a rare, heritage-leaning first name in southern Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Related variants and cognates include Andreas, Andres, Anders, András, Endre, André, Andrew, and Andrei; regional nicknames include Anderl (Bavarian-Austrian) and Res (Swiss German).
