CONSTANTINE. Irish

("high helper").
Robert Louis Constantine Lee-Dillon Fitzgibbon (d.
1983), was an Irish-American historian and novelist.
... The Constantines of Hector
Boece's line of Scottish kings are ornamental Congals
and Conchobars; and, in
like manner, Ireland has turned many a Connal
and Connor into Constantine
in more modern times, accounting for the prevalence of the trisyllabled
Roman as a surname. (History of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884)
CONSTANTINE. American,
English. Of Latin origin, meaning "constant," from constans, a word meaning
holding together firmly, and compounded of con (together), and stans,
the participle of the verb sto (I am, or I stand). Also see Connie.
Constantine James Maroulis, an American actor, rock
singer, and writer. Constantine John Phipps, 2nd Baron Mulgrave (d.
1792), was an English explorer and officer of the Royal Navy. (Wiki)
... After Emperor Lucius invades
Arthur's possessions in France, a Privy Council at York is held to
select a regent; Arthur wills the sovereignty to Sir Constantine should
he not return, then he leaves Britain to defend his possessions.
