The word Datta means "Given", Datta is called so because the divine trinity have "given" themselves in the form of a son to the sage couple Guru Atri and Mata Anusuya. He is the son of Guru Atri, hence the name "Atreya") <https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dattatreya> Yoga śāstra of Dattātreya, 2018: cover (Rishi Dattatrey) New catalogus catalogorum: volume 8 (Dattātreya legendary sage, son of Atri and Anasuya; worshiped as an incarnation of Visnu; many works are ascribed to him) Wikipedia viewed on November 23, 2021 (Dattatreya, Dattā or Dattaguru, is a paradigmatic Sannyasi (monk) and one of the lords of Yoga, venerated as a Hindu god.
