eurús ‎kléos > Eurýkleia
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Eurúkleia ‎(Εὐρῠ́κλειᾰ),” composed of two elements: “eurús ‎(εὐρύς)” (wide, broad, spacious) plus “kléos (κλέος)” (rumor, report, good report, fame, glory). In turn, the name means “enlarged glory, great glory.” Eurycleia is the daughter of Ops and granddaughter of Peisenor, as well as wet-nurse of Odysseus. As a girl, she was bought by Laertes, Odysseus’ father. He treated her as his wife, but she was never his consummated lover so as not to dishonor his real wife, Anticleia. She nursed Odysseus and Telemachus, Odysseus’ son.
