Recently I was reading an article in newspaper which was discussing about the current trend in parents asking doctors for their delivary (by Scissoring) at an aspicious time. No doubt this is to get a child of promising future by giving birth at a time when all stars are positioned to bestow a good ome and this is only after the due consultation with astrologer.

In Julius Caesar’s time, Roman names had three parts, the prename, the clan name and the “cognomen”, or family name within the clan. The cognomen was either a nickname or an honorific applied to describe achievements^*. According to Wikipedia, the significance of Gaius Iulius Caesar’s cognomen was probably in dispute even in his own time. Four possibilities outlined in the dubious writings of the Historia Augusta were, first, that someone in his pedigree had been a member of the Luxuriant Flowing Hair Club for Statesmen (from the L. caesaries); second, that the first Caesar had killed an elephant in battle (caesai in Moorish), a possibility favoured by Gaius himself by the evidence of the pachyderms adding weight to Roman coins of the era; third, that that patriarch had had steely grey eyes (L. oculis caesiis); and finally, that a forebear had been cut from the womb (L. caesus pp. of caedere “to cut”), a procedure applied to save the infant, but that was fatal to the mother.

The final apocryphal explanation is the one that seems to have led to the adoption in the early 17th c. of the term caesarian section. These days, in many parts of the world, there are more sea sections performed than natural births. Canada’s rate was 21% in 2001 and rose to 26% in 2005. World leaders in scissoring delivery are, oddly, Rome at 44% (85% in some clinics), the U.S. at 32%, Brazil at 35% (up to 80% in private clinics), and China at 46% as of 2008 (all stats from Wikipedia).

Scissors have an eggcornical history, too. The route through O.F. cisoires leads back to the same L. caedere of Caesar. But the modern French wield ciseaux; where did the adherent s come from? From a 17th c. confusion with M.L. scissor “tailor,” from pp. stem of L. scindere “to split.” Whatever the root, the very idea of scissarian section has always given me the swiveling fantods.

^* There is room for hidden eggcornation in the word ‘cognomen’, if one imagines that there’s any cognisance or recognition going on in there.
