Etymology The etymology of 'Piromis' is not clear, and the name has few appearances, but the name appears to be applicable to a Greek male of classical times. It appears rather enigmatically in Herodotus "the histories" in the following phrase about a genealogy "declaring each figure to be a "Piromis" the son of a "Piromis," that is, in the Greek language, one who is in all respects a good man." All we can take from that is that "Piromis" as used by Kinberg is likely to be from masculine personal name. Kinberg combined it with the adjectival epithet 'arenosus" which is masculine. [details]

Etymology The etymology of 'Piromis' is not clear, and the name has few appearances, but the name appears to be applicable to a Greek male of classical times. It appears rather enigmatically in Herodotus "the histories" in the following phrase about a genealogy "declaring each figure to be a "Piromis" the son of a "Piromis," that is, in the Greek language, one who is in all respects a good man." All we can take from that is that "Piromis" as used by Kinberg is likely to be from masculine personal name. Kinberg combined it with the adjectival epithet 'arenosus" which is masculine. [details]

Grammatical gender Masculine as Kinberg used a masculine suffix adjective 'arenosus' for the type species, and, matching that, the indications are that 'Piromis' derives from a Greek male name, although it is a somewhat obscure name now. [details]
