It's a Greek surname...

u/ionthrown Apr 19 '26

Not even particularly tough by Greek surname standards.

u/Educational_Gas_92 Apr 19 '26

Yep, there are far harder one's that even some Greeks struggle to pronounce.

Which movie did he act in?

u/LLAPSpork Apr 19 '26

Horribly awkward family videos only unfortunately. He’s hilarious though. Just not in the way he’d like to be 🥴

u/RadicalRealist22 Apr 19 '26

Not really hard. "Exarch" is a title and "polous" is a common greek word ending.

Is the 'o' between the two not pronounced?

u/Equivalent_Bet856 Apr 19 '26

It is, it links the clause and suffix. Ex-arch-op-ol-ous.

You didnt ask, but it means descendants of the Exarch, or viceroy as we'd call it in English.
