Abstract:
LAJOS MIZSER, Proper names referring to Ruthenians in the 16th century //
The 1570 year’s register lists names from the estate (dominium) of Szentmiklós in the former
Bereg county. Ruthenian villages were formerly led by judges (judex). Those in the 16th century,
however, were governed by the leaders of the settlers. The paper examines place-names as well as
personal names. The stock of surnames is linguistically varied. Though dominated by Ruthenian
elements, it also includes names of Hungarian and Slovakian origins, with much rarer examples of
Croatian, Polish, German, Rumanian and Ukrainian names. The author focuses on the motives
behind the name giving processes, even if the real motivations can only roughly be identified after
400 years. Christian names of the period are also varied.
