Pernarauskas

Cf. also Parnaráuskas, Parneraũskis, Pernarãvičius (see). Perhaps glorified surn. from lit. *Pernaras or similar, cf. lit. per̃naras „kas kitą kvailiu, naru laiko, pašiepia; juokdarys“ (LKŽ IX 842), nãras ¹ „kvailys“ (LKŽ VIII 539). On the other hand, it can also be of place-name origin - with a Slavic suffix -skis from the name of the town Pérnarava (Kėdainiai district).
