Origin and etymology of the name

Scholarly onomastic and linguistic analysis
Linguistic explanation and meaning

A rare spelling variation of Saskia, traditionally explained as 'Saxon woman'.

Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Saskie je zriedkavý variant holandského a frízskeho mena Saskia. To sa najčastejšie vykladá ako odvodenina germánskeho osobného mena obsahujúceho pomenovanie Sasov; presný historický vývin mena však nie je jednoznačne objasnený. Súvis pomenovania Sasov s germánskym slovom *sahsą vo význame „nôž, krátky meč“ je pravdepodobný, nemožno z neho však priamo odvodzovať význam mena „bojovníčka“.
