Abstract

The family name Zagorec has been attested for the first time in the 16th century. It is connected with the appellative zagorje and toponymes Zagorje and Zagora. It has been formed by the process of onimization from the common name or transonimization from the ethnic. The author gives examples of similar family names attested in the anthroponymicon of other Slavic languages.
