Kilikevičius

KILIKẼVIČIUS

Etymology

Cf. Kilikáuskas (see). The origin is unclear. The stem kilik- can be from some other name, cf. German Killig: Kilian ¹. But it is not impossible to have a connection with Lieut. ki̇̀lik „invalido lazda“ (LKŽ V 778). For such semantics, cf. Kiliõkas, Kilýpas (see).

Feminine FORMS
