Kazikaitis

KAZIKÁITIS

Etymology

Cf. Kazikãvičius, Kazikẽvičius, Kazikonìs (see). The origin of the stem kazik- raises doubts in the sense that it can also come from kaziuk- (lit. Kaziùkas). But, of course, kazik- can also be a derivative of the suffix -ik- from Kazỹs. Cf. still bend Kozik, Kozikiewicz ¹ etc.
