Meaning & History
Derived from Dutch omzicht meaning "cautious, careful, circumspection", ultimately from the verb omzien meaning "to look around". It may have originated in a Dutch village with several farms named Omzicht, or as a nickname for a cautious person. A famous bearer is the Dutch politician Pieter Omtzigt (1974-).
