Illuyanka is probably a compound, consisting of two words for "snake", Proto-Indo-European *h₁illu- and *h₂eng(w)eh₂-. The same compound members, inverted, appear in Latin anguilla "eel". The *h₁illu- word is cognate to English eel, the anka- word to Sanskrit ahi. Also this dragon is known as Illujanka and Illuyankas. Alternatively, the name is Illu/Ya the Naka, a common Asian word for serpent/snake, aka Naga. Illu/Elu refers to the Egyptian/Greek "God of Time." Ya/Iah is the Egyptian god of the Moon, which in earlier period was a goddess.
