Did you know…
…that the name Ionian comes from the Greek language and it has an unknown etymology?
According to one of many narratives about eponymic legendary figures, Ionius was a son of Adrias – eponymic for the Adriatic Sea.
The origins of the name Adriatic are linked to the Etruscan settlement of Adria, which probably derives its name from the Illyrian adur meaning water or sea.
Nowadays both of the seas have many names, attributed to the languages of the surrounding countries: Albanian: Deti Adriatik and Deti Jon; Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian, Montenegrin: Jadransko more and Jonsko more; Italian: Mare Adriatico and Mar Ionio; Slovene: Jadransko morje and Jonsko morje; and Greek: Adriatiki Thalassa and Iónio Pélagos.
