"Aiax" meaning in Latin

See Aiax in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: [ˈaj.jaːks] [Classical-Latin], [ˈaː.jaks] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: From Ancient Greek Αἴας (Aías). The noun was changed from a dental stem to a velar stem with the loss of the nasal consonant; a more logical development would have yielded *ajās with the root *ajant- (i.e. genitive *ajantis).
