Detailed Slovak etymology analysis
Pochádza z latinského mena Caecilianus, odvodeného príponou -ianus od rímskeho rodového mena Caecilius. Meno pôvodne vyjadrovalo príslušnosť k rodu Caeciliovcov; samotné Caecilius sa tradične spája s latinským slovom caecus vo význame „slepý“, hoci toto vzdialenejšie etymologické spojenie nie je celkom isté.
