Meanings

Darius is a male given name. Etymologically it is the English transliteration of the Persian name Dariush, meaning "he possesses" or "rich and kingly". It can be pronounced as either də-RY-əs or dair-EE-əs. The name also has another meaning: "He who holds firm to good."

Name of three Persian rulers, notably Darius the Great, Persian emperor 521-485 B.C.E., from Greek Darius, from Old Persian Darayavaus, probably literally "he who holds firm the good," from PIE root *dher- (2) "to hold firmly, support" (see firm (adj.)).

Maintain well; possess and good; derived from Darayavahush, from daraya (to possess) and vahu (good).
