Etymology

[edit]

@Bogdan: Are you sure about the etymology? ―⁠K(ə)tom (talk) 15:58, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

-ești placenames are always derived from a name, typically a family name. It's usually either the founder, the owner of the village or a common ancestor (many villages were originally just an extended family). Bătrânu (the Elder) is a relatively common last name in Romanian. Bogdan (talk) 13:24, 24 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
