The Latinized form Cleopatra comes from the 

Ancient Greek Kleopátra (Κλεοπάτρα), meaning "glory

of her father",[6] from κλέος (kléos, "glory") and πᾰτήρ (patḗr, "father").[7] The masculine form would
have been written either as Kleópatros (Κλεόπᾰτρος) or Pátroklos (Πᾰ́τροκλος).[7] Cleopatra was the
name of Alexander the Great's sister, as well as Cleopatra Alcyone, wife of Meleager in Greek
mythology.[8] Through the marriage of Ptolemy V Epiphanes and Cleopatra I Syra (a Seleucid
princess), the name entered the Ptolemaic dynasty.[9][10] Cleopatra's adopted title Theā́
Philopátōra (Θεᾱ́ Φιλοπάτωρα) means "goddess who loves her father." [11][12][note 9]
