Cadmus - Baby Name Meaning, Origin, and Popularity

The name Cadmus is a boy's name of Greek origin meaning "one who excels".
Cadmus is the name of the serpent-slaying hero of Greek mythology who also founded the city of Thebes and is credited with inventing the alphabet. Its ancient feel might appeal to modern parents — especially since Cadmus Peverell is a human Harry Potter character, one of the three original owners of the Deathly Hallows.
