The dictionary could not derive this name
The authors placed it in the Becvar appendix, the list of forms whose origin they could not establish. A reading that leans on what this name means has no philological support, because the meaning has not been established.

The proper name Achird was apparently first applied to Eta Cassiopeiae in the Skalnate Pleso Atlas of the Heavens published in Slovacia in 1950, but is not known prior to that.
