Huba (name)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Huba is an old Hungarian name. One of the "Seven Magyars" (Hét magyar) who took the land in the 9th century was named Huba. Therefore there is the name as a first and last name.

Origin and meaning

The family name Huba has developed independently with different meanings in different countries (e.g. Belgium, Slovakia, Hungary).

Huba as a Walloon family name

In Belgium the name Huba is mentioned in 1611 . In Germany, the Walloon family name Huba is mentioned in 1654 in Radheim (in the Bachgau near Aschaffenburg). After the Thirty Years War, immigrants from what is now Belgium came to the Bachgau in several waves.

The Walloon family name Huba originated from the short form of one of the Germanic-Old German nicknames Hugbert or Hugbald , which were common in Belgium in the Middle Ages as Huber (t) and Hubaut . A short form Hub formed from it was connected with the ending -ard (pronounced -ar ), which led to the form Hubar . -Ard was often shortened to -a in the Walloon dialect . Accordingly, Hubar (d) was transformed into Huba . The Walloon name is based on the Germanic name Huba and describes the patronymic of the son or family member of a man named Huba .

Like most Germanic first names, Hugbert ( attested as Hugibert in the 8th century ) and Hugbald (8th century Hugibald ) are made up of two name words. The first link contained in each case, Hug (i) - is to be combined with the Old High German word hugu 'Sinn, Verstand, Mut' and the Old Saxon word hugi 'Sinn, Gedanke'. The name link gives insights into the spiritual world of the Teutons, because it is also found in the name of the raven Hugin , who sat together with the raven Munin ('thought') on the shoulders of the supreme god Odin and told him about the events in the human world. The second link -bert of the name Hugbert is known from numerous nicknames, such as Norbert and Robert . Its meaning can be derived from the Old High German or Old Saxon word beraht 'shiny, famous'. Hubert possibly means 'the one who shines through his mind, his thinking'. The second element - soon the name Hugbald based on the Germanic word 'BALPA' , the significance of the old German or old Saxon word soon is 'bold' to open. Hugbald could thus be interpreted as 'the bold thinker' or 'the bold thinker'.

Huba as a Slovak or Czech family name

The name Huba is mentioned in the Czech Republic as early as 1381. The name originated from the Slovak and Czech word hub a 'Lippe, Maul, Mund', which is related to Upper Sorbian huba 'mouth, lip, mouth, kiss', hubaty ' loud- mouthed, quarrelsome', Czech hubatý ' loud- mouthed', Lower Sorbian guba 'Lip, mouth, mouth', Russian and Ukrainian gubá 'lip'. The name was given to a person with a conspicuous mouth or a person with a 'big mouth'.

Here the family name Huba alludes to a personal characteristic and belongs to the group of nicknames that refer to the appearance, character or behavior of people.
