(Plovdiv University Press "Paisii Hilendarski", 2023) Walczak-Mikolajczakowa, Mariola
The suffixal form of the surname Czobanow, based on the noun czoban, is
not characteristic of the anthroponymous system of the Polish language,
although currently there are three people with the surname Czobanow living in
Poland. Since the Polish language has assimilated the Turkish apelativum çoban
via Wallachian or Ukrainian, in the Polish language naming system we are
dealing with forms derived from czaban and caban. The author discusses the
penetration of these appellatives into the Polish language, their geographical
spread and ways of deriving surnames from them. She also draws attention to
the abundance of the various forms.
