Felike is a rare masculine given name rooted in the Latin Felix, meaning “happy,” “fortunate,” or “prosperous.” The -ke ending reflects affectionate diminutive formation in several languages: in Hungarian, -ke creates pet forms (e.g., Erzsike), so Felike functions as a homely variant of Félix; in Flemish/Dutch and Frisian dialects, -ke likewise marks familiar speech, allowing Felike to surface alongside the standard Felix. The name’s positive sense of luck and joy echoes the prestige of numerous early Christian saints named Felix.
