The skilful one
Daksanquix starts like Daksha, a figure of Hindu myth, one of the lords of creatures and the father of Sati, the first wife of Shiva. In Sanskrit, dakṣa (दक्ष) means able, skilful. From the same root comes dakṣiṇa, the right hand, then the south, the side on your right when you face the rising sun: the Deccan (दक्कन), the great plateau of southern India (भारत), takes its name from it.
Able, skilful, and pointing south: a name with a sense of direction.
