Meaning & History
Derived from Old High German #êwa# "time, age, law" combined with #rîcja# "powerful, strong, mighty." The second element is also closely related to Celtic #rîg# or #rix# and Gothic #reiks#, which all mean "king, ruler." However, this name can also be a short form of EBURIC. Euric was the name of a 5th-century king of the Visigoths.
