Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “khrūsós (χρῡσός) Khrysēís (Χρυσης),” meaning “golden, gold, something dear or precious.” In Greek mythology, Chryseis was a Trojan woman, the daughter of Chryses. Chryseis, her apparent name in the Iliad, means “Chryses’ daughter”; later writers give her real name as Astynome (Ἀστυνόμη). Cressida (Criseida, Cresseid, Criseyde) is a character who appears in many Medieval and Renaissance retellings of the Trojan War story. She is a Trojan woman, the daughter of Calchas, a priestly defector to the Greeks. She falls in love with Troilus, the youngest son of King Priam, and pledges everlasting love, but when she is sent to the Greeks as part of a hostage exchange, she forms a Greek liaison warrior Diomedes.
