Lyncus Name meanings & History

"lynx" or "sharp-eyed". Latinized form of Greek Λύγκος (Lynkos), though technically Lygkos is the correct spelling. It is derived from Greek λύγξ (lynx) - technically lygx - which refers to the feline animal of the same name. The animal's name is ultimately derived from the Indo-European root *leuk- meaning "light, brightness". Also compare Latin lux meaning "light" (see Lucius). In Greek mythology, Lyncus was a Scythian king who was turned into a lynx by the goddess Demeter. Lyncus is mainly used as a first name for boys.
