Greek names..

Anyone know of any greek names that pertain to farm, or cattle, or dairy, etc etc? For those familiar with Arethusa, it means "to be excellent". What I am trying to do is change my suffix for the holsteins, and want to go with something that stick, and means something good. Balfour is one and it means "Grazing land", but I need more... Thanks!

Hmm, IO is interesting.

Beech-Hill IO (animals name here)
Beech-Hill UNA Una means one. I can't use just Beech-Hill, because it is used, so I need something to go with it.

Going to narrow it down, how about 3 letter names.

Thanks!

Well I figured out a prefix. It was JWS-Beechils. It is now BHF-AGHAMORA - Meaning "From the great field".
