I think 'Bioshock' is quite literally referring to the act of our "Biological system going into shock". The stuff people injecting into their bodies, causes shock to their Biology, a jump, or whatever you want to call it.
I love when a title references something in the story that may seem mundane but is actually a big part of the overall story.
The part where you initially inject that stuff into our main character? That scene where he falls off the balcony and he is in immense pain from the stuff he injected? That's a 'Bioshock". His internal DNA and bodily functions are changing, I imagine that's painful.. a shock.

Something I didnât hear you mention when it came to the importance of the term âAtlasâ in Bioshock is that the entire game is pretty much one big reference to the book âAtlas Shruggedâ by Ayn Rand. In the book, rebellious capitalists disgusted with how the government controls the business world and exploits their productivity plan to create a place where the worldâs top business leaders can pursue their business and creative adventures freely, thus creating the perfect âindividualistâ paradise. The book ends with the planning of this place and Bioshock basically picks up where it left off, critiquing how the âperfect individualist paradiseâ would actually play out. Thereâs also no coincidence that âAtlasâ was a politician before attempting to take over rapture, as itâs heavily implied in âAtlas Shruggedâ that the perfect capitalist utopia could not exist because old world politics will seep its way in and cause history to repeat with attempts to control and limit power and creativity.
