'agoramania' originates from Greek, specifically the word 'agora,' meaning 'open space or market place,' combined with 'mania,' meaning 'madness or frenzy.'

'agora' transformed into the English word 'agora,' and eventually combined with 'mania' to form the modern English word 'agoramania.'

Initially, it meant 'a desire for open spaces,' and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
