古罗马执政官Caius Julius Caesars的 称号。词源不详,据说来自拉丁词caesaries, 长头发,因为Caesar生下来头上长满了头发。

Caesar
c. 1200, see caesarian; Old English had casere, which would have yielded modern *coser, but it was replaced in Middle English by keiser, from Norse or Low German, and later in Middle English by the French or Latin form of the name. Cæsar was used as a title of emperors down to Hadrian (138 C.E.), and also is the root of German Kaiser and Russian tsar (see czar). He competes as progenitor of words for "king" with Charlemagne (Latin Carolus), as in Lithuanian karalius, Polish krol. In U.S. slang c. 1900, a sheriff was Great Seizer.
1. Caesar marched north into the forests that border the Danube River.
