History & Origin

Quadarius is a coined name of the later twentieth century, formed from a Qua- opening and Darius, the Greek rendering of the Old Persian royal name Dārayavahush, 'possessing' or 'upholding goodness', borne by kings of ancient Persia. The result is a stately-sounding modern coinage.

It appeared around 1988, held a faint high point around 1996, and remained rare, lingering into the two-thousands. A Quadarius today is most likely a millennial; the name reflects the inventive naming of its era.

Did you know? Quadarius belongs to the -darius family — Demarius, Jadarius, Tavarius — that African-American families coined in the later twentieth century by pairing prefixes with the regal Persian name Darius; it stayed rare throughout.
