What Sajmon means
Where Sajmon comes from and what it has meant to the people who carry it.
Sajmon is Simon spelled the Polish way. Behind it stands the Hebrew name Shim'on, built on the verb shama, "to hear." The short meaning has come down to us as "he has heard," and in Polish it is written wysłuchany, słuchający.
The root points two ways. There is the one who hears, and there is the one who has been heard. In the Book of Genesis, Leah names her son Shim'on because, she says, the Lord had heard she was unloved. The name is an answer set into a birth.
Sajmon keeps that sound and lets go of the older spelling. On a class register or an official form at the urząd, it reads as plainly Polish. The letter j carries the glide that English hides inside its i. The meaning holds to the first verb: he has heard.
