Uri, Can you (or anyone) give one example where "their name appears" so spelled 
earlier than modern times?

  Well, this is disputed. Their name appears often with an Aleph from the root 
Aleph Samkh Aleph, 'to heal', Aramaic.

And Essenes (and Ossenes) from the Hebrew root 'asah, in the self-designation 
'osey hatorah, observers of torah, as known by Melanchthon in 1532 and by 
others (as factores legis in Latin) before being confirmed in Qumran pesharim:
