The term "atom" comes from the Greek word "atomos," meaning "uncut" or "indivisible." Ancient philosophers, like Democritus, proposed that matter is composed of these indivisible particles. Although we now know atoms can be split into smaller particles, the name persists to describe the fundamental building blocks of matter.
