Equinox

Originating from Latin, Equinox is both a boy's and a girl's name. The meaning of the name Equinox is 'equal night'. The name comes from the Latin word 'aequinoctium', 'aequus' (equal), and nox (night). Everywhere on Earth, day and night lasts about the same amount of time on the equinox day. However, due to the Sun's angular size, atmospheric refraction, and the rapidly varying length of the day that occurs at most latitudes around the equinoxes, they are not quite equal. Primitive equatorial societies were aware of the day when the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west long before they thought of this equality. This occurs on the day that is closest to the astronomically determined event. As a result, a properly made and aligned sundial will show that the day lasts for 12 hours. On the equinox day, the Sun seems to rise in the 'due east' and set in the 'due west'. Every year, on or around March 20 and September 23, this happens twice. The United States, Canada, Australia, Philippines, Singapore, France, Finland, and Australia are among the nations that have expressed interest in the name Equinox. The name of a supervillain from the Marvel comics is Equinox. In the animated series 'Batman: The Brave and the Bold', Equinox is the name of a villain. A mountain called Equinox Mountain is located in Manchester, Vermont's Bennington County.
