What Does the Name Issic Mean?
Issic has no documented etymology of its own. Its spelling and pronunciation match the English name Isaac, so it is most reasonably understood as an uncommon respelling of that name rather than a separate coinage. Isaac comes from Hebrew יִצְחָק (Yitsḥaq), formed from the root צחק (ts-ḥ-q), "to laugh." The customary meaning is "he will laugh" or "he laughs." In the biblical account the name is tied to the laughter of Abraham and Sarah when they are told that Sarah, long childless and past the age of childbearing, will bear a son (Genesis 17 - 18, 21). The Greek form Ἰσαάκ (Isaak) and the Latin Isaac carried the name into the languages of Europe. If Issic is a form of Isaac, then that is its meaning; no independent origin or meaning for the spelling itself is recorded.
Issic Name History & Origins
Isaac is the name of the biblical patriarch, the son of Abraham and Sarah and the father of Jacob and Esau, so the name's history begins in the Hebrew Bible. The Hebrew יִצְחָק (Yitsḥaq) was rendered Ἰσαάκ (Isaak) in the Greek Septuagint and Isaac in the Latin Vulgate, and from Latin it passed into the languages of Europe: Spanish and French Isaac, Italian Isacco, Portuguese Isaque, Polish Izaak, and Russian Исаак (Isaak). The corresponding Arabic name is إسحاق (Isḥāq), and in Yiddish the name produced the familiar form Aizik. In medieval England the name was used mainly by Jews; it became common among English Christians after the Reformation, when Old Testament names were widely favored, and it has remained in use into the modern period. English spelling has always varied - Isaac, Isaak, Izaak, Izak, Issac - and Issic belongs to this group of respellings, occurring occasionally as both a given name and a surname. The short form Ike comes from the same name.
