Detailed etymology (in Slovak)

Meno pochádza z neskorolatinského ženského mena Scholastica, utvoreného z latinského prídavného mena scholasticus vo význame „školský“, „učený“ alebo „vzdelaný“. Latinské slovo má základ v gréckom scholastikos, odvodenom od scholé, pôvodne „voľný čas“, neskôr „štúdium“ či „škola“. Meno sa preto vykladá ako „učená“, „vzdelaná“ alebo „venujúca sa štúdiu“.
