Bubenicek Family History & Genealogy
Bubenicek Last Name History & Origin
AddSummary
"Buben" in the Czech Slavic language means "drum", as in musical instrument. My grandparents, from Prague, said "Bubenicek" meant "Drummer Boy" or "young drummer, male". The suffix icek or cek is often seen in Czech or other Slavic surnames as far east as The Ukraine, much as "ova" means a Female gender added to a surname (ex. Navrátilová is the Patriarchal Surname Navrátil, so Martina was "ova" daughter of Navrátil). BUT, I have not been able to convincingly determine that icek or cek means "young male".
History
Appears to be a primarily North Central (near Prague) Czechia (Czech) Surname, however there are many "Benicek" surname families in the Brno area of southern Czech Republic. I found a third cousin last name Benicek in Brno.
