Artur
Artur is a male given name related to Arthur. It comes from Latin or Celtic roots and can mean "bear-like" or "of honour." It may come from the Roman surname Artorius, the Celtic bear goddess Artio, or from the Celtic word *artos meaning "bear." Similar Celtic names include Old Irish Art, Artúur, and Welsh Arth. Art is also a common short form of Arthur. In many languages, the name is spelled Artur (Estonian, and in many Romance, Slavic and Germanic languages). Finnish forms are Artturi and Arttu. The word arta appears in Old Persian with the meaning "truth," connected to ancient Indo-European roots about being proper or true. Artur is not commonly used as a surname.
