שבתאי

שַׁבְּתַאי • (shabtái) m

שַׁבְּתַאי (canonical)
shabtái (romanization)

From שבת (“Sabbath, Shabbat, Saturday”). The Hebrew name of the planet is derived from the name of the day of the week, ultimately through analogy with the Roman name for Saturday, which is still named after the Roman god Saturn in some European languages. Originally in Latin the sixth day of the week (seventh in Jewish tradition) was dedicated to the god Saturn (see dies Saturni), but after the Christianization of the Roman Empire it was renamed "Sabbath" (dies Sabbati), as in Hebrew. Today, European languages are split in their name for the day, with the majority using a derivative of שבת, and a few, including English, retaining the dedication to Saturn. The name "שבתאי" is a calque of sorts of the name "Saturn," reinterpreting the planet's name as being taken from the word for Saturday instead of the Roman god.

מאזניים

he-proper noun

מאזניים / מֹאזְנַיִם • (moz'náyim) m du

מֹאזְנַיִם (canonical)
moz'náyim (romanization)

The word has equivalents in several Semitic languages. It seems to be a dual form of the singular *מוֹזֵן, derived from the root *ו־ז־ן whose ancient meaning was weighing, compare Arabic وَزَنَ (wazana, “to weigh”).
If so, the expected spelling of the word would be *מוֹזְנַיִם. The current spelling is probably the result of a late allusion (in spelling only) to the word אָזְנַיִם, although there is no etymological connection between the words. This analogy stemmed from a folk etymology that linked the two words due to their phonetic similarity. Its influence was so strong that already in the language of the Bible the secondary root א־ז־ן (which appears in the Bible in איזן) is derived from מאזניים, where the aleph does not have any "right to exist" historically.
