Kipras is Lithuanian in Origin.
Kipras is a Lithuanian masculine given name, etymologically tied to Greek Kyprianos (“of Cyprus”) via Latin Cyprianus. In Lithuanian, Kipras is also the standard name of the island nation Cyprus, so the personal name literally denotes a person from Cyprus; by extension it carries long-standing associations with copper, mined there in antiquity.
The name entered Lithuanian Christian usage through the cult of Saint Cyprian (3rd c.), appearing in parish records and gaining visibility in the early 20th century thanks to famed tenor Kipras Petrauskas; contemporary bearers include composer Kipras Mašanauskas. International variants include Cyprian (English/Polish), Cyprien (French), Cipriano (Italian/Spanish/Portuguese), Kyprianos (Greek), and Kiprian (Russian/Ukrainian). Feminine counterparts are Cypriana/Cipriana and Cyprienne. Kipras remains uncommon yet traditional in Lithuania, balancing classical roots with modern brevity.
