Etymology: Eviota: No etymology given, suggested by Christopher Scharpt: from Latin 'eu' for 'true' and 'iota' for anything very small, in combination 'truly very small' referring to it as being the smallest vertebrate at the time it has benn described by Jenkins (thus, making the suggestion by Scharpt plausible; imitata: Name from Latin verb 'imitor', meaning to mimic or imitate, referring to its similarity to Eviota flebilis; feminine adjective.
