About Eureka
For most, Eureka will be tied up with the bathtub myth of Archimedes' discovery of volumetric displacement, making it linked to the idea of invention, discovery and innovation. Some Australians might more closely link it to the Eureka stockade, a 19th Century rebellion of miners and workers against the colonial British government. Amanda Knox named her baby girl Eureka in 2021.
Eureka is also given to boys.
Pronounced yoo-REE-kuh.
As of October 2026, Eureka ranked #6109 for boys in US births in 1978 and #15636 for girls in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #1970 for girls in 1974.
