Etymology
From nn non *Sauðar, plural of non *sauðr, most likely derived from non sjóða to boil, seethe, cf. Swedish dialectal sv saud m spring and Low German nds-de Sood well, pit. nn Saude Sauer Saue Saudane.
The modern form likely stems from the plural genitive non Sauða, as found in compounds like non Sauða sókn, akin to nn Valle < non Valla and nn Molde < non Molda.
