Modern American invention, likely a blend of Javan and Darius
Javarus is a contemporary American name with no singular ancient root. It most likely originated as a creative blend of the biblical name Javan, meaning 'Greece', and the Persian name Darius, meaning 'possessing goodness'. It follows a pattern of rhythmic, three-syllable names popular in African American naming traditions.
