    History & Etymology

    Perjámos is a name with roots in ancient Greek. It is most famously associated with Priam, the last king of Troy, whose Greek name was Priamos (Πρίαμος). The name's etymology is debated; some scholars link it to the city of Pergamon (Πέργαμον), suggesting 'from Pergamon', while others propose a connection to the Greek prefix 'peri-' (περί) meaning 'very' or 'around', combined with 'amos' (ἀμός) meaning 'famous' or 'blameless', thus 'very famous' or 'blameless'. The name's historical significance is primarily through its association with the Trojan War.
