Theotimos

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Theotimos (Θεότιμος) is a Greek name, derived from theos, meaning 'god', and timè, meaning 'honour (or honourable) gift'. Its Latinized form is Theotimus.

Theotimus is also the title of an ascetical theological work by Francis de Sales, which devotes the first six chapters on the love of God and the rest to mystical prayer.
