Lyrik is English, French in Origin.
Lyrik is a modern English given name drawn from the word “lyric,” ultimately from Greek lyrikos “of the lyre,” via Latin lyricus and French/Medieval English. It denotes the songlike, personal voice of poetry and, by extension, musicality and expressive feeling. The k-ending is a contemporary respelling that gives the name a crisper, pan‑Germanic look while keeping the same pronunciation as Lyric.
As a personal name, it entered use in the late 20th century and rose sharply in the 2000s, chiefly in the United States and other English‑speaking countries. It is unisex, though more commonly given to girls. Common variants and near-variants include Lyric (standard), Lyrik, Lyrick, and the French‑tinged Lyrique; related choices are Lyra. Overall meaning: “songlike; of the lyre; poetic.” Associations with music and performance make it a favorite among creative families.
