Etymology:
Eryxo (๐ฆ๐๐พ๐พ๐: ฮฯฯ ฮพฯ, ๐๐๐๐บ๐๐๐๐พ๐ฝ: Eryxรณ) is an Ancient Greek unisex name of unknown meaning; it is derived from the masculine name Eryx ( แผฯฯ ฮพ, รryx), which is of unknown origin, combined with the neuter noun-forming suffix -ฮฟ (-รณ). The first element is likely derived from แผฯฯฮบฯ (eryko), meaning โto restrain, keep in, curb, hold backโ, though it may also be related to the verb แผฯฮตฯฮณฮฟฮผฮฑฮน (ereรบgomai), meaning โto spit out; to belch, disgorge; to discharge; to bellow, roar, shoutโ; itself derived from the Proto-Indo-European root *hโrewg-, meaning โto belch; to roarโ.
