Toponymy
Brigitte Jobbé-Duval proposed a forest origin for Amorots meaning "the land of oaks". Succos derives from the Basque zoko meaning "isolated country".[2]
The current spelling in Basque is Amorotze-Zokotze.[7] Pierre Lhande, in his Basque-French Dictionary,[8] indicated the spelling Sokueze for Succos.

The census of the population of Lower Navarre in 1695[18] counted 40 fires at Amorots and 32 at Succos. The total at the 1758 census was 74 fires[19] at Amorots.
