Meaning & History
Probably derived from δασύς (dasys) meaning "shaggy, hairy". There were several saints of this name, the most notable of whom are two martyrs, both persecuted under Diocletian: Dasius of Durostorum, a soldier, and Dasius of Nicomedia, a servant who was martyred together with Zoticus and Gaius.
