Hi Rilo - well my Ari is Aristidis, then there is Ari as in Aristotle and also Ari as in Aristotelis as well. I suppose it would be Harry in English...

Most Greek's don't celebrate their birthdays but their name days however as name days are after the main saints, Spiridon, Dimitris etc.  However there is no 'real' name day for Aris so they celebrate on All Saint's Day which unlike the other Saints day is not a fixed day but depends on the when Easter falls each year so is a moveable date.....

All the best for your great news and future grandson......
