/ˈfoʊsiən/

Forms: late Middle English–1600s Phocean, 1500s Phocayan, 1500s– Phocian.

Origin: Either (i) from a proper name, combined with an English element. Or (ii) a borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element. Etymons: proper name Phōcis , -ian suffix; Latin Phōciī , -an suffix.

Etymology: Either < classical Latin Phōcis (ancient Greek Φωκίς), the name of Phocis, a state in ancient Greece + -ian suffix, or < classical Latin Phōciī inhabitants of Phocis + -an suffix.Old English Focense , Focenses Phocians ( < classical Latin Phōcēnsēs ; compare post-classical Latin Focenses ), occur as ethnonyms in the Old English translation of Orosius Hist. With forms in -ean compare -ean suffix. The form Phocayan is perhaps by confusion with Phocaean n. or perhaps after classical Latin Phocaeus (adjective) of Phocis.
