Eureka

The meaning of Eureka is 'I have found it!'. It is a gender-neutral name and is of Greek origin. It derives from the Greek word 'heureka' which is used as an exclamation of epiphany or excitement. The name became well-known thanks to a mathematician called Archimedes. According to the story, Archimedes was in charge of determining if a crown was made of pure gold or not. He had to find a method to prove the crown was not solid gold. He ran himself a bath and as he got in, the water spilled over the edge. He realized that the volume of the object submerged could be equal to the volume of water displaced. As a result, he was able to use this method to determine whether the crown was real gold or not. He ran through the streets naked, shouting 'Eureka!'.
