Does anyone know where this name comes from? It may be Biblical, since Í found it in an article about an Amish family. I don't know if it's a boys' or girls' name, sorry.

I don't want to be crude or anything but that name reminds me of "sexy." Unless it's pronounced like Cece.

Sounds like a pet form of Cicely or Cecile.

I knew a Sesie that used to go to my school. I think it was short for Sessalie or Sessely or something similar (I don't know exactly how it was spelt, sorry!)

Hej Caprice,

I really don't know that name, but it reminds me of Cecilia. Maybe it's a pet form?

Hej Satu,
yes, I was thinking of that, too, but I'm not sure.
While you are here, I'd like to ask you: The Sorbs of eastern Germany, do they use German first names? Do you have any examples of Sorb surnames? I just find them interesting...

Hej Caprice,

Most Sorbs in Eastern Germany have got German first names (I mean names USED in Germany, not usually of German origin of course).

I can't think of many Sorb names... some first names are:

Borbora (Barbara or Bärbel in "German")
Bjarnat (Bernhard)
Køesæan (Christian) - I'm not sure about the right spelling here...
Pìtr (Peter)
Mìræin (Martin)
Arnošt (Ernst)

and some last names are (different spellings):

Schuppan / Župan
Starosta / Starosse
Witzschas / Wiæaz
Lehnig / Lenik

Hälsningar

Sorry!

Some of the special signs did not work.

Křesćan = K - r with a small v on top - e - s - c with a ´ on top - a - n

Pětr = P - e with a small v on top - t - r

Mìræin = M - e - r - c with a ´ on top - i - n

Wiæaz = W - i - c with a ´ on top - a - z
