Eurybia is Greek in Origin.

Eurybia is the Latinized form of Ancient Greek Eurybía (Εὐρυβία), from eurys “wide, broad” and bia “force, might,” yielding the sense “wide-ranging force” or “broad power.” In Greek myth she is a primordial sea-power, daughter of Gaia and Pontus, wife of the Titan Crius, and mother of Astraeus, Pallas, and Perses - associations that tie the name to mastery of winds, constellations, and the restless sea.

As a given name, Eurybia is vanishingly rare; it appears mainly in learned, Renaissance, and 19th‑century neoclassical usages, and today appeals to parents seeking an uncommon mythological choice. The name also lives on in scientific Latin as a plant genus (asters). Variants and transliterations include Eurybie (French), Euríbia (Spanish/Portuguese), Evryvia (Modern Greek), and the occasional Euribia in older English sources. Possible nicknames are Eury, Ria, and Bia.
