If you are asking what their names were in greek, I recommend reading the Wikipedia pages to their names.

  • Matityahu (from hebrew: "מַתִּתְיָהוּ")
  • Marcus (Latin name)
  • "Loukas" (Λουκᾶς)
  • Iōannēs (Ἰωάννης)

but we are not even sure if all of them were real persons or how much their texts were altered
