Etymology

The term 'utopian' originates from Sir Thomas More's 1516 book 'Utopia', which describes an imaginary island society and its political system. The word 'utopia' itself comes from Greek roots meaning 'no place' or 'nowhere', reflecting the idea of an ideal society that may be unattainable in reality.
