"Σειρήν" meaning in Ancient Greek

See Σειρήν in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /seː.rɛ̌ːn/, /siˈrin/, /siˈrin/, /seː.rɛ̌ːn/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /siˈre̝n/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /siˈrin/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /siˈrin/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /siˈrin/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Perhaps originally "entangler" or "binder," from σειρά (seirá, “rope, cord”), from Proto-Indo-European *twerH- (“to grab, seize, enclose”). On the other hand, Chantraine is in favor of a Pre-Greek origin, in view of the suffix -ήν. Compare also Σείριος (Seírios).
