DEMETRIOS OR
DEMETRIOU for a FEMALE
THIS IS THE CORRECT GREEK TRANSLITERATION INTO ROMAN ALPHABET FROM THE GREEK ALPHABET USING CORRESPONDING LETTERS.
TRUST ME I'M GREEK
:
: Dimitris as a last name(surname)would be spelt DIMITRI or DEMETRIOU as the spelling of names changes in Greek when they are used as surnames.
: : It is not always easy to spell Greek words in the Latin alphabet, as the Greek alphabet uses characters we're not used to.
: : Personally, I would spell it Dimitris.
