Meaning & History
From Greenlandic taatsiisaq or taatsiigaq meaning "the one whom one has held back to mention (name)", from a Greenlandic endearment term: "the fancied mention", carefully not mentioning the name, but expressing endearment nevertheless, because the child was named after a deceased relative, from Greenlandic atsiaq meaning "the one named after a deceased person" and from a hypocoristic word taa(nna)tsiaq meaning "the dear, sweet one".
