Since the 19th century the name has been interpreted as indicating that the Chasuarii lived near the river Hase, which feeds into the Ems. There is a proposed Germanic etymology for the name of this river, which connects it to the word for a grey colour. The second component of the name was common among the neighbouring Germanic peoples in the first century, such as the Ampsivarii, Chattuari, and Angrivarii, and it is believed to have meant "dwellers" or "inhabitants".
