Freimontas

FREĨMONTAS

Etymology

Probably from Latvian surn. Freimans, which is pronounced Freimonc by local people. From the latter gender (Freimonc) the non-gendered Frei̇̃montas will be restored. This is an analogous formation, because in the dialect and Baltic compound personal names with the second case mantas turn into monc ¹.

Feminine FORMS
