MEANING & HISTORY
What does Miles Andrew mean?
Miles came through Norman use of Milo. The researched entry distinguishes an uncertain possible Slavic dear connection from an early Latin miles, soldier, association and a separate Scottish Maoilios anglicization; these histories are not one settled literal definition.
Andrew is the English Andreas form, from Greek andreios and aner, man. This explains the historical vocabulary, without assigning a modern bearer’s gender or character.
