Zeik is a name of Berber origin, commonly found in Morocco and other North African countries. It is believed to have originated from the Berber word "zik" which means "to shine" or "to be radiant". Therefore, Zeik is often associated with light, brightness, and beauty.
The history of the name Zeik is not well-documented, as it is not one of the more commonly used names in North Africa. However, it is known to have been passed down through generations in some Berber families, particularly among the Kabyle people of Algeria.
Today, Zeik remains a relatively rare name outside of North Africa, but it continues to be popular among Berber communities around the world. It is often used by those who wish to honor their Berber heritage or to give their children a unique and meaningful name with deep roots in North African history and culture.
Zeik had consistent popularity over the years with at least five babies named Zeik born annually from 2011 to 2012 and again from 2014 to 2020, except for a spike of six births in 2014. In total, there were 31 children named Zeik born during this period.
