Sebastian (name)

Sebastian is a given name. It comes from the Latin name Sebastianus meaning "from Sebastia", the ancient name of the city of Sivas, in modern Turkey. The name of the city is derived from the Greek word σεβαστός (sebastos), "venerable", which comes from σέβας (sebas), "awe, reverence, dread", in turn from the verb σέβομαι (sebomai), "feel awe, scruple, be ashamed".Sebastos was the Greek translation of the title Augustus, which was used for Roman emperors. Sebastian became a widely used name because it was the name of Saint Sebastian, a third-century Christian martyr.

The name has been increasing in popularity in different countries. In the United States, it was the 98th most popular name for boys born in 2008. It was the 86th most popular name for boys born in England and Wales in 2007, the 38th most popular name for boys born in Sweden in 2007, the 13th most popular name for boys born in Norway in 2007, the fifth most popular name for boys born in Chile in 2006, and was the 59th most popular name for boys born in New South Wales, Australia in 2007.

Sebastian (Durrell novel)

Sebastian, published in 1983 and sub-titled Ruling Passions, is the fourth volume in The Avignon Quintet series by British author Lawrence Durrell. Set mainly in Switzerland immediately after World War II, the novel continues the story of Constance and the Gnostic cult begun in Monsieur.

The mix up over the letter informing Affad of his forthcoming death has caused major ructions within the Gnostic sect, and he is called back to Egypt for admonishment. Before leaving, however, he has asked Constance to use her psychiatric skills to treat his son, who has become autistic, a task in which she is gradually successful. After Affad's return their relationship continues, but it is brought to an abrupt end by the psychopath Mnemidis, who has escaped from the institution where Constance works, and who goes to Constance's flat with a view to killing her, but kills Affad instead. The book finishes in surreal manner as Affad seems virtually to disappear from Constance's memory, two chapters give conflicting accounts of Constance's action upon the death of Constance's boss Schwartz, and unexpectedly Sylvie makes a first reappearance since Monsieur (another character who is supposedly a fictional creation of Blandford) and begins an affair with Constance.
