Tomiris is an ancient feminine name of Scythian origin, derived from the Old Iranian word "tamura" meaning "dark" or "night." It was borne by Tomyris, a legendary queen of the Massagetae, a powerful Scythian tribe that ruled over much of Eastern Europe and Central Asia during the 6th century BCE. According to ancient Greek historian Herodotus, Tomiris was renowned for her strength, wisdom, and military prowess, leading her people against the invading Persian army led by Cyrus the Great. Despite her eventual defeat, Tomiris is remembered as a symbol of resistance and resilience in the face of adversity. The name Tomiris has since been adopted by various cultures, including those of Eastern Europe and Iran, and continues to be associated with power, courage, and female empowerment.
"Tomiris has seen an increase in births between 2018 and 2022, with six births recorded during that year. However, the number of births has since decreased to five in both 2023 and 2018. In total, there have been sixteen births over these four years."
