Ikaris is of Greek origin and means 'to watch'. It is derived from the Greek word 'ikteris', which signifies 'watchful'. This name is often associated with Icarus, a figure in Greek mythology who flew too close to the sun on wings made by his father Daedalus. In ancient times, this name was likely used as an adjective or epithet rather than a personal name. Today, it may be considered rare but is sometimes chosen for its unique sound and connection to mythology.
"Ikaris saw exactly eight babies born with its name in 2022."
