Toponymy.
Brigitte Jobbé-Duval proposed a forest origin for Amorots meaning "the land of oaks". "Succos" derives from the Basque "zoko" meaning "isolated country".
The current spelling in Basque is "Amorotze-Zokotze". Pierre Lhande, in his Basque-French Dictionary, indicated the spelling "Sokueze" for Succos.
