Damias is a unique and distinctive given name of Latin origin, meaning 'tamer' or 'conqueror'. It's derived from the Roman family name Damianus, which was likely given to someone who had tamed a wild animal or conquered a city. The name has been used sparingly throughout history, contributing to its rarity and singularity today. Damias is also associated with Saint Damian, one of the earliest Christian martyrs, whose memory is honored on August 5th in the Roman Catholic Church. This connection may have influenced some parents' choice of the name for their children.
"The name Damias saw an increase in popularity with 7 births recorded in 2021, but this was followed by a slight decrease to 5 births in 2023, bringing the total number of babies named Damias over these two years to 12."
