As a boy’s name, Demetrius comes from the Greek roots, meaning “follower of Demeter,” who was the goddess of corn and crops. Each year when her daughter Persephone was confined to Hades, Demeter would vanish, bringing a stop to the harvest and growth, as well as the beginning of winter until spring would come. Babies bring a whole new range of feelings into a person’s life, but just like springtime brings a new bounty of joy, there will always be reasons to grin.
