"Bio" is a prefix that refers to biological matter, such as flesh and leaves, and anything that lives. "Shock" refers to a state when something happens that was unprepared for, usually the result of a sudden event rather than a passive one. Put these together and you get "Bioshock" a word that describes A sudden spike in stimulus in a living being. The plasmids you procure and use throughout Bioshock rewrite your genetic code, something that nature never intends to happen hence the name "Bioshock".
