For ease of use, the [i] in front of the last name, and the ending _ve, were dropped. If the last name ends in [a], then removing the [j] would give the name of the patriarch or the place, as in, Grudaj - j = Gruda (place in MM). Otherwise, removing the whole ending [aj] yields the name of founder or place of origin, as in Lekaj - aj = Lek(ë).
Latvian male surnames usually end in -s, -š or -is whereas the female versions of the same names end in -a or -e or s in both unmarried and married women.

Male surnames ending with -a, -o, -ski a -cki are inflected by suffixes -ina/-yna, (Andricki - Andryccyna). Addressing with a suffix -ka (Urbanka) are considered unwritten. Inflected surnames of unmarried women with male surnames ending with a consonant and with -ka or -ca forms a suffix -ec (Kral – Kralec, Čornak – Čornakec).

A Slavic name suffix is a common way of forming patronymics, family names, and pet names in the Slavic languages. Many, if not most, Slavic last names are formed by adding possessive and other suffixes to given names and other words. Most Slavic surnames have suffixes which are found in varying degrees over the different nations.
