Niqo is a unique and distinctive given name, believed to have originated from the French name Nicot, which is derived from the Latin name Nicolaus. It means "victory of the people" or "people's victory". Niqo is often associated with the French philosopher Michel de Montaigne's essay "Of Names", where he expresses his preference for this name over others like Nicolas and Nicholas.
"Niqo is quite rare, with just six babies given this name each year on average over the past decade."
