It is derived from eu meaning 'good, well' ; areskein 'to please, to satisfy'. Euarestos (Old Greek), Euaristos (Old Greek), and Evaristus (Latin) are original forms of Evaristo. The second element is areskein (meaning 'to please, to satisfy'), but the name has been re-spelled such that it appears to be from the Greek 'aristos' meaning 'best, excellent'. The name Evaristus was borne by the fifth pope, who was martyred under the Roman emperor Hadrian in 107 AD.
