Where this word comes from
The name in its modern form was mainly adopted starting from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, during which it was probably interpreted as oksa (“branch”) + -nen. However, it can also be found in earlier sources, and the name may in fact ultimately originate from oksi (“bear”) rather than oksa.
