Evangelidou Surname Meaning
The Greek surname Evangelidou (Ευαγγελίδου) is the feminine form of Evangelidis (Ευαγγελίδης), a patronymic surname derived from Evangelos (Ευάγγελος) or a related Evangel- personal name and the suffix -idis (-ίδης), meaning “descendant of.” Evangelos derives from eu (εὖ), meaning “good,” and angelos (ἄγγελος), meaning “messenger,” giving the sense “bearer of good news.” Evangelidou therefore means “female descendant of Evangelos,” with the surname formation particularly characteristic of Pontic, Asia Minor, Macedonian, and northern Greek families.
