To become actual or real; to eventually come to pass or happen.
From 'eventual' plus the verb-forming suffix '-ize' (from Greek '-izein'). Created in modern English to mean 'to make eventual' or 'to cause to eventually occur.'
The '-ize' suffix is used to create verbs from nouns and adjectives across English, and it's so powerful that we even use it informally: 'winterize' your car or 'prioritize' your tasks—it means 'to make something into that thing.'
