There was a playwrite named Epinicus in ancient Greece, so it could refer to an ode he wrote, or an ode written in his style?

I once used the word as a title for a poem because it sounded like the greek word for battle cry Epinikion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epinikion

An Epinician ode is a type of ancient Greek lyric poetry that was sung in celebration of athletic victories. It typically honored a victor in events like the Olympic Games, praising their achievement and highlighting their virtues. These odes were performed in public and were characterized by their joyful and triumphant tone.
