Etymology
Cs comes from the name cesium, which comes from the Latin caesius meaning 'sky-blue', because early scientists saw bright blue lines in the light from the element when they discovered it. So the name reminds you of that blue flash and helps link the symbol Cs to the metal used in very precise atomic clocks.
