[Lexicog] Male first name "The blessed one"

[Fritz Goerling]

Vladimir,

 

You have a great last name.

 

Blessings,

Fritz

 

Fritz,

I Slovak, we have "Beňadik" or "Benedikt" (the older form). As first 
names, both are rather infrequent nowadays.

On the other hand, last names of the same form and its derivates 
(Benedik, Beňadik, Benedikovič, Beno, Beňo, Benka, Benko, Benkovič, etc) 
are fairly common ;-)

V Benko, 20:55
