Cyrus Name Meaning, Origin and Popularity

2 Min Read

Cyrus is a boy’s name that comes from both Persian and Greek roots. With its simple meaning of “sun,” this name is both strong and soft. The sun is a joyous presence that breaks up each day, whether it is the gentle sunlight that shines in the evening or the dazzling beam that travels across the horizon in the morning. Cyrus may have origins in the Greek word kyrios, which means “lord,” and it can assist infants in connecting with their inner leader. Baby, like the sun, will be a source of brightness in your life and a part of your daily routine from the moment you get up until the moment you go to sleep.
