Suescun Surname Meaning
User-submitted Reference
Basque surname. It comes from the words sua, meaning 'fire' and esku (hand) or eskuan (in the hand), from which we can conclude 'fire in the hand'. The legend also tells that there is a village in the south of France near Lourdes, which is called Suescun or something similar and that there was an emigration of this people because of an epidemic and they settled in the bank of Navarre. Other versions etymologically, the meaning is problematic, being possible that its meaning is the union of two Basque terms: zuaz, contraction of zugatz (brave tree) and -kun or -gune (place of), with the meaning of 'place of brave trees'. It can also derive from the Basque term suge (snake), and the term kun (place of), with the meaning of 'place of snakes'.
