Most Popular Czech surnames

In the Czech Republic, the Slavic names are most common, a very strong influence on the names of Catholic faith was provided. Traditional Czech names and today are very popular: Tomáš, Marek, Milan, Kateřina, Eliška. Sometimes there are very exotic names, for example: Květoslav, Mojmír.

Czech Republic belongs to Slavic countries, so you can find a lot of names identical to Russian, Ukrainian or Polish names: Lenka, Pavel, Jana, Petr, Roman, Olga, Ilona, \u200b\u200bIvan, etc.

I will tell about the main groups of Slavic names, which also apply to Czech names:

• Diode (Svatoslav, Bohdan, Bohumil, Miroslav);
• Communion names (ždan);
• Names from animal and plant peace (květoslava);
• Names in order of birth (firsthand, spin, third);
• Names for human qualities (brave).

Due to the presence in the Czech language of the diacritical signs (Gachekov, Charek), many names are pronounced a little different than their Russian equivalents. Emphasis is most often placed on the first syllable. As you probably noticed, many Czech names have a brief version of the name, so do not be surprised if you don't understand the first time, what a name did Czechs mean.

In order to correctly contact the Czech, you need to use the "charting case" (the fifth case in Czech language). I will not go into the debrist of the language, just say, how it will look like: "Xenio!", "Grischo!", "Jano!", Misho! ".

There is one more nuance in Czech, which refers to female surnames is the addition of ending -OV ( -OVÁ). That is, normal surnames need to credit to get Paris Hiltonova, Michelle Pfeifferova, etc.

And also our blogs:

Appearing on the light, immediately gets the last name. It would seem just one word, sometimes two, but it plays a big role in the continuity of generations of the family, the history of the genus. They may be simple or frightened, ridiculous or majestic, but somehow they are a subtle hint (and often a rough indication) on the mystery, why the ancestors called that. All this is in Czech surnames. Now about it in more detail.

In the depths of centuries

To understand the characteristics of the diversity of Czech surnames and names, it is necessary to even plunge into the history of this amazing Slavic state.

In the ninth century, during the spread of Christianity, trade relations developed in the Czech Republic, wars were developed. Began to appear along with Slavic Jewish, Greek, Latin and Germanic names. Since they were pronounced and wrote it difficult for Czechs, they were not shy of them to modify for their convenience.

Also thanks to Jan Gus for convenience, the alphabet of Chekhov was also reformed. Prior to this, briefly pronounced Czech words through Latin transliteration four times. Writing the same business documents occupied much more time.

In the sixteenth century, the name was selected depending on the social status. The nobles of their children called Villa, Yaroslav, Friedrich, soldiers - Hector or Alexander. Costers from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century received names such as Dorota, Barbor, Catailorg.

The first Czech surnames appeared approximately in the fourteenth century. Initially, their owners became representatives of the ruling families, which is completely natural. Czech nobility was advantageous in this way to consolidate and transfer their noble origin for descendants. One of the oldest noble Czech surnames - Chernikov.

More often, the second name of simple Chekhov without a noble pedigree came from the nickname. It was given by occupation, the distinctive structure of the body or its individual parts, characteristics of character, and sometimes harmful habits. There were even crucial options.

In the case of "professional" Czech surnames it happened that not all family members were worn. If the father was joinerynal, he could call him, for example, Yang Bednarzh, and his son-carpenter could call Vaclav Tashans. So representatives of one family received different surnames.

With the development of the feudal system, the surname from the commonhouse in the Czech Republic became mandatory. This was determined by ordinary practicality. During the collection of filings, there was no longer a strong confusion as before.

The names of Czech children were competently common. It is difficult to prevent the error, which yang paid to suck completely, and which is not. And with the names it became much easier to consolidate pay for a particular person.

The list of Czech surnames could expand, becoming everything is brighter and more diverse if it were not for the reforms carried out in the state at the end of the eighteenth century, which approved the existing list.

The most common surnames are new or Novak, Dvorak, Morak, freedom.

Metaphor of nature

There is a large list of generic names of Czechs formed from words associated with natural phenomena. For example, Ivan Glinka, hockey player. It does not need to guess that his ancestors called in honor of clay.

Perhaps it was a clay miner, and maybe this is an indication of a weak character, malleable as clay. The surname Mraz (Frost) is very common. This is a clear evidence of the severity of the character of that Czech, who was given such last name.

Genetic from Ginchice

Among the Czech surnames a lot of foreign, which is explained by geopolitical changes in the country. Since the time of Austria-Hungary, the names of German origin spread throughout the territory of the Czech Republic.

To everyone who taught biology in school well, the surname of the Czech scientist Genetics - Mendel is perfectly known.

The native of the Moravian town Ginchice came from the Slavic-German family. Yes, this is the very scientist, Abbot of the Augustinian Order, who watched the green peas and brought the laws of heredity.

He was ahead of his research. Contemporaries did not hesitate to make fun on his scientific difficulty, based only on changes in legume crops. But after twenty years after his death, the scholar world slaughter, studying his achievements in the newly science - genetics. Mendel is also called "Czech Darwin".

Only "-OVA"!

Staying in the Czech Republic, the representatives of the beautiful floor should not be surprised if, when documenting documents will be seen very modified.

There is a state feature of the formation of women's Czech surnames. They are formed from any male, but with the obligatory addition of suffix "-ov". This indicates the historically established patriarchalness of the national culture of Chekhov. There are no exceptions for foreigners.

The widely available fact that the singer Kylie Minogue did not come with a concert to the Czech Republic, having learned that she was "Minogov" on the posters in Prague.

Hochma baby

Czechs do not hold a sense of humor, which is reflected in their generic names. Even today, funny Czech surnames are often found, although the laws of the republic have long allowed to replace them.

With a great irony of the ancestors of Chekhov, while attense, it was called titles both secular and clergy. Among them, Papa (from Pope) and Biscupp (bishop). Also there are male Czech surnames of abusive and accusatory character: Khalabala - a slacker, troubled - sad, Gneza - Grozny, angry.

Chekhov names

In the top of the list of Czech male names, many centuries are: Yang, Peter and Yakub. Therefore, even now you can find well-known personalities with such a "nickname". Many know or have seen a goalkeeper with a bright male Czech name and last name - Peter Czech. This is where the questions will not arise where he comes from, for which football team of the world he would not play.

Perekristian roots are traced in Czech names. We all remember the cheerful children's cartoon about the cloth, the author of which Henek Miller. It is believed that the name of health comes from the old common name of the Zeleslav (here + Glory).

In addition to old, the Catholic Church influenced the list of modern common Czech names. Children of their Czechs were often called in honor of the Saints: Josef, Yakub (from Jacob), Pavel, Tomas, Marek, and so on. Czech names can be divided into twisted, which occurred from the communities (waiting), the names of the plant and animal worlds (Kvetoslav), in order of birth (Pervak) and in accordance with the qualities of character (brave).

Czech names

Czech Republic is a Slavic country, and, of course, among Czech women's surnames and names are quite familiar and for the Russian ear. One of the influential women in the Czech Republic, a fighter with corruption, the exposure of the casnocrad schemes, is Lenka Bradachova.

Along with traditional female names, Czech is often called exotic, foreign "nicknames." For example, the director of the company "Alma", the Czech company "Agrofert", names of Simon Sokolov. From the male Jewish name Simon (Shimon).

Often girls are called in honor of a beautiful flower, bird or animal.

Pronunciation of names

In Czech, there are diacritical signs, for this reason, many names are pronounced somewhat differently than the relevant Russians. As a rule, an emphasis is put on the first syllable.

Many Czech names have a brief version, therefore it is difficult for a Russian person to understand about whose name is a conversation. As in Ukrainian, there is a charting case in Czech. To refer to the Czech correctly, you need to call his name in a guessing case, which means that to choose the right end. For example, the Czech named Wroclaw adds "Wroclaw!", And to Janu - "Jano" and so on.

All Prague 1 Prague 2 Prague 3 Prague 4 Prague 5 Prague 6 Prague 7 Prague 8 Prague 9 Prague 10

Currently in the Czech Republic exists more than 40 thousand surnames.

And the first names appeared in the 14th century.

Most often surnames were formed on behalf. For example, quite common urban, urbanks, Lukash, Lukashk, Kaspar, or on behalf of Yang - immediately several - Yanak, Yandak, Yanda, Janota. I think many feel embarrassed when a person is called Vaclav Havel, your Sigmund or Ota Mikhal, Yakub Peter, Mikulas Alash. Try to guess where the name, and where is the last name.

Still surnames were often given depending on the kind of activity. Here they live in the light of the collarge (Wheel Master) and Tubagarnzh (carpenter), Taison (Carpenter) and Schelanta (Glassman). The names of Bednarzh (Bondar), Cowarzh (Kuznets), MLARZH (Melnik) were often met.

Czech surnames for the most part arose due to the need to better identify people. The first similarities of the names, most often reflected certain traits of character or appearance of this person, and, often were ironic, mocking or even offensive. These include, for example, the grip (toothy), shorthand (negligent), halabala (slacker) and others. They still can not be called classic last names, it was rather nicknames or nicknames, which could change one person throughout the life. Father and son could have different "surnames" depending on the kind of occupation, appearance or typical character traits.

Over time, the feudals began to force their subjects constantly use the second name in order for the registration of citizens to become more accurate. So it was decided that second names, that is, future surnames, be transfer in inheritanceTo avoid mess, first of all, when collecting taxes.

In 1780, Emperor Joseph II use of tribal surnames legalized.

The names of the urban and villagers were distinguished. In cities, people often received surnames depending on the public layer to which they belonged, or from the place where they lived. In the 18th century, no numbers were used for the orientation on the streets. Accordingly, if someone had, for example, the surname of Wedl, it means that it was a man "from an elephant", that is, he lived in the house "by an elephant".

Pretty clear was the difference between the names of the nobles and ordinary people. Nobility names usually consisted of several shaft names, from the last name, as well as the nicknames, which, most often, marked the place of the residence of this kind. For example, Yang Zhizzov from Trozznova, a guarantor of the guarantor of users and outheads, Boguslav Gashishteinski from Lobkovitz. The nobility of the surname by inheritance began to be transmitted earlier than that of ordinary people. This is understandable, because in the interests of the nobles themselves, so that their children would bear the generic name, which would immediately spoke about their noble origin, position in society and the consistency of their family. The oldest Czech naval surname refers to the genus Cherninov (out of the 11th century).

Simple people of the surname, most often, were associated with the birth of their classes, for example, bad bargain (carpenter), Tasnery (carpenter), Keltheknik (Mechechshchik), Sedlak (peasant), Vorach (PAKAR), NAPRATIK (BUDGET), MESSNOWA (Forest), Loca (Lackey) and others. The names of the villagers often testified about the size of the property of this person. For example, Pulpan (the accurate translation means "half lord") was the owner of half of the field, Lanski has already become the owner of the whole field, and the man with the name of Flyland was a landless peasant.

Someczech surnames reflect the sphere of spiritual, above all, religion. Such surnames belong to, for example, Krzhestyan (Christian) and Ranagnik.
Even in this area, mocked surnames arose like a pick-up (designation for the representative of the Czech brothers, later Protestants) or Lutrin (Lutheran). Such names in the Middle Ages swore representatives of other, noncatolic religions. This group also includes families borrowed from the Biblewhich expressed a certain property of this person. There is a surname Sodomka from the biblical city of Sodom, destroyed by God because of his sins of his citizens, the surname of Gerodes, who was marked by a bloodthirsty man, Pilate is an indecisive person and the like.

It should be noted that humor reflected in the formation of many Czech surnames. Many of them indicate that the ancestors of modern Chekhov were real merchant. They raised the highest positions, using their titles and titles, both secular and church, to designate their fellow citizens. Until now, you can meet with such last names as the cisarge (emperor), the cradle (king), the Vevey (Duke), the Prince, or even Papa (Dad), Biscupp (Bishop), OPA or Namath (Abbot) and others. Mocking surnames also formed on the basis of the spiritual or physical qualities of their carriers, such as Gyeseks (France), the Plenthiha (gossip), the catch (idleness), are vague (sad), angles (evil), the beauty (beauty), and this title could express either Reality, or Irony.

Real qualities Reflected such surnames as Kulgank or Kulgava (chrome), Shilgan or Shilgava (oblique), wide (wide), neurob (cheese), small (small) and others.

Pretty popular were surnames associated with some part of the body; In most cases, they were ironic, for example, chapter (head), Tlame (muzzle), Brojkhachek (Puzzled), Korarone (as a skeleton) and the like. Sometimes satire was such a rigid that the name of a part of the animal body was used to designate a certain person, for example, Kopeitko (Kopyites), Tlap (Paw), Puceour (Paw), Voganka (Tail) or Otseshek (tail).

Many Czech surnames are metaphoricalSo they arose on the basis of some similarity. This category includes, above all, the names associated with nature, with the names of plants, animals or natural phenomena as, for example, toad, reptile (snake), Beran (Baran), Mraz (Frost), Winter, Clay (clay) and Others. And these surnames were often defined by a mockery or cursing.

Many Czech surnames are connected with the digestive areaWhat can guess that the ancestors of the Chekhov were passionate consumers. Such surnames belong to, for example, pecsen (loaf), Gusk (Bulka), bay (patty), watering (soup), Knedlik and others.

An inexhaustible source for surnames was nature-mother. Blue, Moudo - is understandable without translation, by the way Alphonse Fly, a famous Czech artist. Gavrak - Voronenok, Merges - Eagleok, Vorzhishki - a poop, clawing - cock. Going through the Czech land Brzhiz (birch) and oaks (oaks), linden and chips (rosehips), the communion (bulWhi, and if you continue to translate into other languages \u200b\u200b- natural chipolino).

Of course, a certain surname, a person could get both due to expressive character traits, appearance, or because of behavior: quiet, Tlovers (thick), grades (hero), preserving (splashes saliva during conversation), and the bargaining), or Neruda (evil man, "radish" on the jargon "Gentlemen of Good luck"). The famous Czech poet and writer Jan Neruda, most likely, was not evil - the poet could not be evil.

Why do people change surnames? Because their surname sounds ridiculous or even indecent. Who accesses such assistance to the registers? For example, a certain pan of sightsellites (Zřídkaveselý) - translated - the occasionally cheerful - in the sense - "Tsarevna-Nesmeyana", - he would easily be able to ask him to give him a new surname. The registry office themselves decide who to allow them to change the surname, and who does not have, and do not require any evidence that they laugh or mock such a surname. How could it arise, for example, the surname Grejsemnou - Play with me? According to etymologists, who received this surname, a person had to very love the games, possibly gambling, for example, in the bone, and maybe harmless - with the children. Such surnames will rarely meet, as unnecessary, they disappear. But at the beginning of the last century it was possible to get acquainted with the village of Litsezas (Vraťsezase) - come back, or come back. But Pan Vitamwas (Vítámvás) - I welcome you - undoubtedly polite from birth, he will never forget to say hello, but, calling his last name, in response invariably hears - and I am. Only a person with a strong character can wear the last name. Vraždil - killed ... And one travel lover was allowed - he was called Radsethoulal - rádsetoular - in translation - loved to wander at different places ..

The origin of the most common Czech surnames

The most common last name in the Czech Republic is the name Novak, only in the Prague telephone directory "Yellow Pages" - more than 40 columns with novakov phones.

Therefore, if you have a friend in the Czech Republic, and you want to find it, but you know about him just that he is Novak - consider that you are not lucky. But if you meet a Cech in your area - you can safely contact him with the words: "Pan Novak! How do you like with us? " The likelihood is wrong with the surname, Mala.

Surname Novak - This is the Czech equivalent of the Russian surname of Ivanov. Moreover, it is, if you can say that "family" symbol of the Czech Republic. Novak is a national hero of jokes, as once in the Soviet Union - Vasily Ivanovich Chapaev with Petka. Surname Novak is the most common in the Czech Republic. Statistics show that in 2001, more than 34 thousand men lived in the Czech Republic in the Czech Republic and more than 36 thousand women in Novakov named.

How did the Czechs come to life such that wherever it looks - everywhere Novakov? The history of origin is the surnames simple. Well, did not love the ancestors of modern Novakovy sit in one place, they liked to move from the village to the village. Move to another village - here they are there are new, newcomers. The head of the family immediately nickname and received Novak. Replaced not only because of love for traveling or in search of something new, special. Circumstances often forced: the thirty-year war, for example. It should be noted for justice that sometimes newbies in the village were visible negotia, and therefore this surname is located in third place in third place. So, if you make a mistake, calling unfamiliar Checky, do not confuse, and tell me: "Sorry, Pan Newly, confused." Newly men and women together - more than 51 thousand live in the Czech Republic. Yes, so that you do not think that the Czechs only did that they moved there, here it is necessary to mention the second reason for the widespread surname Novak. Czech shoes at one time was very popular in the Soviet Union, and the name of Tomasha Bati - the Czech shoes-businessman is known all over the world. Love of Chekhov to the domestic good comfortable shoes is transmitted from generation to generation, one can say, absorbed with mother's milk. And since ancient times, shoemakers, masters on the tailoring of the shoes, it goes without saying, - new, called Novakov.

Interestingly, if Pan Novak failed to increase, and his offspring, too,, or his degree or his heir, was already called Novachek.

If you are mistaken, contacting your new Czech friend "Pan Novak", then his name is, most likely, "Pan freedom" Beautiful surname, right? And in general, it immediately becomes clear how it originated - loved the ancestors of today's Pan of Freedom Volnoye Volyushka. But not only. It turns out that freedom freedom is dispersed. Of course, such a surname actually received people ready for freedom for everything. But the Freedom of the Freedom received free - that is, not serfs, the peasants. They did not depend on anyone, but did not possess the noble title. The exact same name was also received by those who used only one type of freedom, for example, freedom of movement. From the surname, freedom, as in the case of Novakas, have been formed similar names - flowrides, free and free. According to the 1999 census in the Czech Republic, more than 25 thousand men lived in the family of freedom and 27 thousand women in the family of freedom lived. And if you look again in the Prague telephone directory "Yellow Pages", then there you will find 30 columns with Freedom phones.

The third most common last name in the Czech Republic is surname Novotny. We mentioned the origin of this name in connection with the name Novak.

The fourth in the list of the most common names in the Czech Republic is a very famous surname that all lovers of classical music in any case know - this Dvarak (Famous Czech composer Antonin Dvarak). In the Czech Republic lives 22 thousand men and almost 24 thousand women with this surname (do not forget only that in the Czech marriage in women's childbirth, the ending -OV. Dvarak - Dvarakov). There are several versions on the origin of this surname.

The first - they could be free peasants, literally - the owners of a big yard. The second - disadvantages called people who hired to work in such big farms, "yards". The third - also called those who lived at the "courtyard" - the royal, noble castle or hail, that is, the servant of the highest and lower rank. The fourth - the Dvorak received the last name from the word "Dvizhan" - polite, educated man.

Be that as it may, the surname of the Dvorak is connected with all the layers of the feudal society. That is why today in the Czech Republic is so common last name.

Surname Chapec It does not belong to the number of the most common, but to the number of the most famous names. After all, the name of Karel Chapeca, as well as Antonina Dvoraik knows the whole world. The most common version of the origin of this surname is formed from the word "chap" - stork (in Czech), and "Chapek", therefore, a diminutive-smear of Chapa. It cannot be argued that all the ancestors of today's chapsus possessed long thin legs and, say, a long nose, resembling beaks than they were similar to small aistics, but to assume it, in any case, you can. There is another explanation. In the old days, before it was invented by each house to give a sequence number to better navigate at home painted various signs or pictures. Most often, the source of inspiration was nature. So the houses on which the stork was depicted, ("Chap") was quite a few, and they called "Aist" - in Czech "at Chapa". The owner of such a house could nose Chapac. To date, almost 7 thousand chapkov live in the Czech Republic.

The surnames formed from gloomy names, for example, Hawl, Cristof, Paul, Shimon, Vaclav, are also highly distributed. Many surnames of this type arose from the decreasing form of the name, for example, Matsek, Mateychek, Mateichk, Mateyak, Mateyo and others.

And finally, let's talk about modern Czech celebrities.

Everyone knows that the name of the singer Lucia Bilay It is a pseudonym. Her civil name is Ghana Worikov. Why did the Star of Czech stage chose the name of Bila? Maybe because the adjective "white" stood in opposition to her black hair - the inheritance of her Gypsy origin. People who wear Bila's surname probably had an unusually white leather or white hair (they could be albinos). Later, those who received it were used in their origin, or by the name of the settlement, where they lived. In the Czech Republic, we can often meet such cities and villages, like, for example, Bilin, Bilovka, the fuel, bile and so on. Due to the title of the town of Bealek, we must recall the famous Czech architect Frantisek Bileka. His surname was formed from the basis of Bil, meaning the word "white", with the help of a diminutive suffix -ke.

Familia singer Karel Gottaeveryone is associated with the German word "Gott", which means - God. Yes, probably, many fans of the Czech nightingale are considered to be God among singers. But, in fact, this surname was formed from another German word - Gote, Gotte - a surrounding child, a godfather, a godfather. So, neither the divine voice nor the surname of Gott in no way indicate unearthly origins.
