Ichthys Symbol - The Christian Fish Sign Meaning and History #1371692 (License: Personal Use)

This image shows a polished metallic Ichthys symbol, commonly called the Jesus fish, featuring the classic outline of a fish formed by two intersecting arcs with a cross-like tail. The design originates from the Greek word “ἰχθύς” (ichthys), an acronym for “Ἰησοῦς Χριστός, Θεοῦ Υἱός, Σωτήρ” (Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior). Its minimalist yet profound form has been used since antiquity as a covert identifier among early Christians and remains a widely recognized sign of faith today.
