What is the meaning of the name Cyriak ?

The baby name Cyriak is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced SIR-ee-ak (ˈsɪriæk),see-REE-ak (siːˈriːæk).

Cyriak is Greek in Origin.

Cyriak is a rare masculine given name derived from Greek Kyriakos, meaning “of the Lord” or “belonging to the Lord.” Through Latin Cyriacus, it spread across Christendom, yielding regional forms such as Cyriac (English and South Indian Christian), Cyriaque (French), Cyriak or Cyriacus (German), Cyriak (Polish), Ciriaco (Italian and Spanish), Kyriakos (Greek), and Kuriakose/Kuriakos (Malayalam). Related names include Cyril/Kyrillos, which share the same kyrios “lord” root.

The name gained prominence via several early saints and martyrs: St. Cyriacus of Rome, a 4th‑century deacon; the child martyr Cyriacus (Quiricus) commemorated with Julitta; and Kyriakos the Anchorite, a 5th‑century ascetic. In German lands St. Cyriak(us) was counted among the Fourteen Holy Helpers, inspiring church dedications and medieval usage. Today Cyriak remains uncommon in English-speaking countries but endures in liturgical calendars and as a heritage name in Central Europe and among Syriac/Malabar Christians.
