Etymology: The word Εὐωχία (euōchia) comes from the Greek words εὖ (eu), meaning 'well' or 'good', and ἔχω (echō), meaning 'to have' or 'to hold'. Thus, it literally means 'having well' or 'being well off', referring to a state of prosperity or good living, which then extended to mean a feast or good cheer.
