"須佐之男" meaning in Japanese

See 須佐之男 in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: [sɨ̥sa̠no̞o̞] Forms: 須佐之男 [canonical] (ruby: (), (), (), ()), 須佐之男 [canonical] (ruby: 須佐之男(スサノオ)), Susanoo [romanization], Susanowo [romanization], すさのを [hiragana, historical]
Etymology: Uncertain, with many possible derivations. One of the more compelling explanations is that this is a compound of すさ (susa, “roughness, wildness”, root word unattested in isolation, but found in terms such as 凄まじい (susamajii, “terrible, dreadful”) or 荒む (susamu, “to be wild, to be savage”)) + の (no, possessive particle) + 男 (o, “man”). In this case, 須佐 (Susa) would be ateji (当て字). Another theory is that this may be a compound of 須佐 (Susa, name of a place in Japan, where the god is supposed to have first touched earth) + の (no, possessive particle) + 男 (o, “man”).
