Shmykov Surname Meaning
User-submitted Reference
The surname Shmykov is derived from the nickname Shmyk, which probably goes back to the dialect word шмык (shmiyk) - 'furrow in the snow from the wind'. It can be assumed that this is the nickname for a child born in winter in windy weather. It should be noted that the noun шмык, like the verb смыгать, goes back to the ancient word смыкать (pull, wash). Therefore, it is possible that a restless or very clean person received the nickname Shmyk. According to another hypothesis, the Shmykov surname is a Russified version of the German surname Schmick. It comes from a nickname based on the German noun smicke (whip). This is probably the nickname for the one who was engaged in the manufacture of whips or a person with a sharp character.
