Gologorsky Surname Meaning

User-submitted Reference

The name Gołogórski (Latinized as Gologorsky) means "from Gołogóry" and was used interchangeably with z Gołogór (-ski [male], -ska [female], -scy [plural]) and the Latinized de Golegori. Gołogóry (Ukrainian: Гологори) is a village, formerly a town, in the Lviv oblast (province) of the Ukraine in the historical region of Galicia. It is located 31.7 miles east of the regional capital Lviv and had 658 inhabitants in 2006.

The name Gołogóry is Polish because the town was under Polish control from the 1340s (taking over from the Magyars) until the late 1700s (taken over by the Austro-Hungarian and Russian empires). It has two Polish roots: (1) the Polish adjective goły, meaning 'naked' or 'bare'; and (2) the Polish noun góra, which means 'mountain'. The Polish adjective górski means mountainous, referring to highlands or uplands. The ending -y makes the noun plural, e.g., Góry Bialskie (the Bialsky Mountains), thus rendering Gołogóry as "Bare Mountains". This likely refers to the Zlotshev mountains 3 miles east of the town or, more generally, the hilly character of the region, which is a highland extension of the Carpathian mountains 60 miles to the southwest.

The accented Polish letter ó is pronounced like 'oo' in English 'boot', with rounded lips. This pronunciation was retained in English maps that used only unaccented letters by replacing the accented ó with a U; the town is labeled Gologury in most English maps of the 1800s (and, much less frequently, Gologory).
