Bukas

Cf. Latin Buks ¹. Limm. surn. may be from Latv. will be: mnd. buck (LVV I 347) „stirninas“. See also J. Endzelīns, 1956, p. 141. Our surn. Bùkas in one other case can be from Limm. Buks (RTAS 88), cf. still lit. < Latv. bùkas „miškinis ožys, stirninas“ (LKŽ I 1137). In addition, the origin is also possible from lit. bùkas „nesmailas, atbukęs; buolas, baužas“ (ibid.).
