hi Drow & welcome to the community!

thanks for raising attention there are two Simian but one with different s letter.
now we know the one with the tailed "s" is in Bihor county and called Érsemjén in hungarian language.
the meaning is from the old, hungarian 'Semjén' male name. 'ér' signs 'creek' in it i think.

when i searched 'simian' in GE it leaded me to the Simian with the simple 'S' in Mehedinti county.
i would have better searched for 'Érsemjén' which would leaded me to another one of mine*... blush
shame i did not remembered for the settlement.

file attached to the original post has been updated!

very useful first post!
thanks again and cu,
g
