Hector

Fun fact: Hector’s origin is Greek, not Spanish. The name comes from “Hektor,” which means “steadfast,” or hold fast. In Greek mythology, Hector was a hero of the Trojan War revered for his bravery and honor; it was also the name of the knight who raised King Arthur. In modern times, Hector is one of the most popular boys' names in Spanish-speaking communities. Someone who knows how to hold fast, at least when it comes to baseballs, is Héctor Sánchez, a catcher for the San Diego Padres.
