Ἴων

Ἴων • (Íōn) m (genitive Ἴωνος); third declension

From earlier Ἰᾱ́ϝων (Iā́wōn) according to Beekes.
Pokorny has speculated about a connection to a Proto-Indo-European root *wey-, expressing a shout of joy or distress, as in Ancient Greek ἰά (iá, “clamour, shout; sound, roar”). Ἰᾱ́ϝων (Iā́wōn) could mean “devotee of Apollo”, based on the cry ἰή παιών (iḗ paiṓn) uttered in his worship; the god was also called ἰήϊος (iḗïos) himself. Douglas Harper speculates that it may share a Proto-Indo-European origin with Sanskrit योनी (yonī, “womb, vagina”), a supposed reference to goddess-worshipping.

From Lydian [script needed] (*luwdja, “Luwia”), where the Lydians came to live after being driven away by the Phrygians. Here the -d- is result of affrication of proto-Luwian *-j-. Cognate to Hittite [script needed] (Lu-ú-i-ya, “Luwia”).
The name's ultimate origin is unclear. Beekes suggests that they received the name of the area's original inhabitants (Pre-Greek/substrate), as they were originally called Μαίονες (Maíones). It was connected by Josephus to Lûḏîm (Hebrew לודים) and by Hippolytus to Ludim, son of Mizraim. It could instead ultimately be an endonym from Proto-Indo-European *h₁lewdʰ- (“people”).
