Aeaea is Greek in Origin.

Aeaea (pronounced ee-EE-uh/ay-AY-uh) is a mythic toponym from Ancient Greek Aiaia (Αἰαίη), the island home of the enchantress Circe in Homer’s Odyssey. As a personal name it carries the sense “of Aeaea” or “Circe’s island,” rather than a transparent lexical meaning. Scholars debate its root: some link it to the Greek cry of lament aiai (“alas”), others to Aea/Aia, the Colchian city ruled by Aeëtes, making Aeaea “place of Aea.”

Recorded from Homer through Hellenistic and Latin literature (Apollonius Rhodius, Ovid), the word reappears in Renaissance mythography and modern fiction, but has virtually no traditional use as a given name. Contemporary use is ultra-rare and largely ornamental, favored by lovers of classical myth and liquid vowel-heavy forms. Variants include Aiaia (Greek form), Aea and Aeae as clipped or simplified spellings, and Eaea as a modern respelling; related mythic references include Circe, Aeëtes, and the epithet Aeaean.
