Etymology

From Kashubian Słowińc (Slovincian, person) +‎ -ian. The ultimate origin is uncertain; the name is often said to be coined by Alexander Hilferding, but it actually predates his research, being found in (17th century) German slowinzischen, related to wendisch and often mistaken with Latin vandalicus.[1]
