Written another way, "Dragolea," the name means "of love" or "the lovely one" - hardly fitting for a man who developed the unlovely habit of lancing his foes on a stake, from which the nickname "Tepes" (the Impaler) was derived.
Escrito de otro modo -"Dragolea"-, ese nombre significa "de amor" o "el encantador"... no precisamente apropiado para un hombre que adquirió el poco encantador hábito de empalar a sus enemigos, de lo que se derivó el apodo "Tepes" ("el Empalador").
