Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Pochádza zo starogréckeho mena Hilaríōn (Ἱλαρίων), odvodeného od prídavného mena hilarós (ἱλαρός) vo význame „veselý“, „radostný“ či „prívetivý“. Do kresťanskej mennej tradície sa rozšírilo najmä vďaka úcte k svätému Hilarionovi Veľkému, pustovníkovi zo 4. storočia pôsobiacemu pri Gaze.
