Dimitrios Ilias Neofotistos

(1848 - )

The name "Neofotistos" means "new light" or "newly blessed." It is a name given by the church to people who adopted Christianity. During the 1800's, this means that a man was an Ottoman or an Albanian and he converted to Christianity. Thus, people with this name are not necessarily related as the name is given to anyone who coverts. (Giannis Michalakakos, Feb 2018)
