See Ὠκεανός on Wiktionary

Proper name [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /ɔː.ke.a.nós/, /o.ce.aˈnos/, /o.ce.aˈnos/, /ɔː.ke.a.nós/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /o.ke.aˈnos/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /o.ce.aˈnos/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /o.ce.aˈnos/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /o.ce.aˈnos/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Uncertain, though generally acknowledged to be a non-Indo-European substrate loan, with Beekes noting that the concept of a "world-river" is not native to Indo-European mythology. A possible relationship with the Semitic root ʕ-w-g (“to be crooked, tortuous”) has been discussed. Another possibility includes a derivation from unattested Sumerian *A-ki-an(u) (Water of the Land and Heaven). Beekes suggests a Pre-Greek form *ūkʲān-. Michael Janda has reminded the scientific community of an earlier comparison with the Vedic dragon Vṛtra's attribute āśáyāna- “lying on [the waters]”, claiming it to be an exact phonetical transposition of the Greek word, both stemming from Proto-Indo-European *ō-ḱey-m̥[h₁]no- (“lying on”), related to κεῖμαι (keîmai, “to lie”).

A possible relationship with the Semitic root ʕ-w-g (“to be crooked, tortuous”) has been discussed. Another possibility includes a derivation from unattested Sumerian *A-ki-an(u) (Water of the Land and Heaven).\nBeekes suggests a Pre-Greek form *ūkʲān-. Michael Janda has reminded the scientific community of an earlier comparison with the Vedic dragon Vṛtra's attribute āśáyāna- “lying on [the waters]”, claiming it to be an exact phonetical transposition of the Greek word, both stemming from Proto-Indo-European *ō-ḱey-m̥[h₁]no- (“lying on”), related to κεῖμαι (keîmai, “to lie”).",
