Meaning & Origins
Croatian (northern and eastern Croatia): ethnic name for a Croat (see Horvath). In particular, this term was used to denote Croatian refugees from the Ottoman Empire who settled in the eastern and northern parts of Croatia. When Hungarian officials could not spell the Slavic name of such refugees, they would simply write them down as Horvat(h) ‘Croatian’. Horvat is now the most frequent surname in Croatia.
