The town's former name of " Sexmoan" was how it was spelled by Spanish friars attempting to transcribe " Sasmuan", the original and current name. In medieval Spanish, the letter was pronounced as a voiceless postalveolar fricative /ʃ/, identical to the digraph in English. It was derived from the ancient Kapampangan rootword sasmo , which means to meet, according to a 17th-century Kapampangan dictionary. Sasmoan therefore is synonymous with " pitagmuan" or "meeting place of the datus ". It was named "Sasmuan" because it is where the Pampangos meet when they were at war with the Chinese in Guagua .[5] In 1991, it was unanimously changed into Sasmuan, since the previous name, Sexmoan, denoted a very negative sexual connotation not only to the town , but to the people living within the town itself.
