The baby name Andreja is a unisex name, 3 syllables long and is pronounced "ahn-DREY-uh".
The name Andreja is a variant of the name Andrew, which is of Greek origin and means "manly" or "warrior." It is a unisex name, but in some countries, such as Slovenia, it is more commonly given to girls. The name has been used since the early Christian era and was popularized by Saint Andrew, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus.
The pronunciation of Andreja is ahn-DREH-yah. The name is composed of two parts: "Andr-" which means "man" or "warrior" and "-eja" which is a Slavic suffix that means "of" or "belonging to." The name has been used in various forms and spellings throughout history, including Andrija, Andrei, and Andrea.
In recent years, the name Andreja has gained more attention due to the rise of transgender visibility and acceptance. In 2014, the Slovenian model Andreja Pejic made headlines when she came out as transgender and became one of the first openly transgender models to walk in high fashion runway shows. The name Andreja has since become a symbol of strength, resilience, and self-expression for many in the LGBTQ+ community.
