Re: want to find the meaning of my name
Well xylon means "wood" - the material not tree covered land - and -aki is either a diminutive or the Cretan patronymic ending.
I think xylaki might mean "stick", or "little stick". That suggests the possibility that Xylaki is a nickname, say for a thin person.
What do you think?
