Pages in category "Russian-language surnames" The following 200 pages are in this category, out of approximately 2,318 total. This list may not reflect recent changes .
This category is for surnames originated among Slavic peoples, i.e., peoples who speak Slavic languages. Often the origins of these surnames is difficult to pinpoint, since the three cultures have common origins and heavy mutual influence.
It should only contain pages that are Slavic-language female forms of surnames or lists of Slavic-language female forms of surnames, as well as subcategories containing those things (themselves set categories). Topics about Slavic-language female forms of surnames in general should be placed in relevant topic categories.
In modern Russia, there are cases when women raising a child without a father give the child their own name instead of a patronymic. This practice is not recognized by law, but the civil registry offices may meet such wishes. A common loophole is when mother's name is a feminine form of a masculine given name, even an obscure one.

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).
