Abstract:
MIHÁLY HAJDÚ, Report on the work in progress on the volume of “Mai
családneveink lexikona” [Dictionary of Contemporary Hungarian Family Names] //
The author has been chiefly concerned with preparing the dictionary of contemporary
Hungarian family names since the beginning of the 1970s. Official data, however, have long been
unavailable to him. With the assistance of voluntary researchers (i.e. university students) the author
still collected some 200,000 different family name forms and was about to edit them into an
onomasticon, when the Central Office for Administrative and Electronic Public Services provided
him with the complete list of all surnames which on 1st of January in 2007 were borne by
Hungarian citizens. This collection will form the basis for the dictionary, in which every family
name of more than 100 occurrences will be treated. The entries will contain the number of
occurrences of each family name as well as the variant forms of spelling of each surname with
reference to the number of occurrences of those name forms which display more than 10
appearances; furthermore, the etymology of the family names, their origin, meaning, development
(the kind and meaning of the roots and suffixes), geographical distribution as well as their
illustrious bearers will also be discussed. Sample entries taken from the dictionary in progress are
presented for the first time in this paper.
