Detailed Slovak etymology analysis
Staré maďarské ženské meno odvodené od apelatíva emse, ktoré označovalo samicu, najmä prasnicu, a súvisí s uralským základom *emä vo význame „matka, žena“. Zakončenie -se sa vykladá ako zdrobňovacia prípona, preto sa meno tradične interpretuje ako „mamička“ alebo „dojčiaca matka“. V maďarskej historickej tradícii je Emese matkou Álmoša a pramatkou rodu Arpádovcov.
