1) of good name and of good omen
1a) in the latter sense used in taking auguries; but those omens were euphemistically called "euonumos" which in fact were regarded as unlucky, i.e. which came from the left, sinister omens, (for which a good name was desired)
2) left, on the left hand
Part of Speech: adjective
G2176
From G2095 and G3686; properly well named (good omened), that is, the left (which was the lucky side among the pagan Greeks); neuter as adverb at the left hand: - (on the) left.
