Meaning & History

The first element of this name is most likely derived from Greek νίκης (nikes) meaning "of victory", which is the genitive singular of the Greek noun νίκη (nike) meaning "victory". An other possibility for the first element is Greek νικήσας (nikesas), which is the aorist active participle of the Greek verb νικάω (nikao) meaning "to win, to conquer, to prevail".

The second element is derived from the Greek noun δίκη (dike) meaning "justice, judgement" as well as "custom, usage". As such, the meaning of this name should be something along the lines of "justice of victory" or "custom of victory".
