Invictus Origin and Meaning
The name Invictus is a boy's name meaning "unconquerable, undefeated".
The word Invictus is best known via the Invictus Games, a multinational sporting event for wounded, injured, and sick armed service personnel. It's most famous as the venue for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's romance.
Invictus was first used as a name, as far as we know, by pronatal activists Malcolm and Simone Collins, who named their older daughter Titan Invictus.
'Invictus' is also the title of a powerful poem by William Ernest Henley, ending with the lines "I am the master of my fate:/I am the captain of my soul."
