Etymology- Enigmatically comes from the Greek word enigma, which means “riddle.” When many people think of a riddle they think of something secret or not explainable, almost like the meaning of being mysterious. Mystery is something unknown and not explainable, so when English speakers developed the word enigmatically, they used the word for riddle. Over time, the use of the word has increased. It’s maximum use is in 2019 and didn’t start being used until the 1800s.
