See Ἀπόλλων on Wiktionary

Proper name [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /a.pól.lɔːn/, /aˈpol.lon/, /aˈpo.lon/, /a.pól.lɔːn/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /aˈpol.lon/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /aˈpol.lon/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /aˈpol.lon/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /aˈpo.lon/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Uncertain. Possibly from Pre-Greek, or from an older, obsolete verb meaning "to drive away," as in evil (via Klein from Usener). Plato in Cratylus connects it to ἀπόλλυμι (apóllumi, “to destroy”), ἀπολούων (apoloúōn, “washing”), ἀπολύων (apolúōn, “delivering”), ἁπλοῦν (haploûn, “simple”), and ἀειβάλλων (aeibállōn, “always shooting”). Plotinus, in Ennead V.5.6.26-30, claims that Pythagoreans derived it from ἀ- (a-) and πολῠ́ς (polús) to render Απόλλων, literally "one without parts," as a 'symbol' of the Monad. Sometimes said to derive from *Apeljōn to synchronize the Arcadocypriot and Doric variations with the Hittite deity Apaliunas, Hittite 𒀀𒀊𒉺𒇷𒌋𒈾𒀸 (A-ap-pa-li-u-na-aš).

  "etymology_text": "Uncertain. Possibly from Pre-Greek, or from an older, obsolete verb meaning \"to drive away,\" as in evil (via Klein from Usener). Plato in Cratylus connects it to ἀπόλλυμι (apóllumi, “to destroy”), ἀπολούων (apoloúōn, “washing”), ἀπολύων (apolúōn, “delivering”), ἁπλοῦν (haploûn, “simple”), and ἀειβάλλων (aeibállōn, “always shooting”). Plotinus, in Ennead V.5.6.26-30, claims that Pythagoreans derived it from ἀ- (a-) and πολῠ́ς (polús) to render Απόλλων, literally \"one without parts,\" as a 'symbol' of the Monad.\nSometimes said to derive from *Apeljōn to synchronize the Arcadocypriot and Doric variations with the Hittite deity Apaliunas, Hittite 𒀀𒀊𒉺𒇷𒌋𒈾𒀸 (A-ap-pa-li-u-na-aš).",
