Tripkovich Surname Meaning

User-submitted Reference

A South Slavic surname derived from the name, Tryphon, from the Greek, Τρύφων. In Serbia the name Tripko is rare, held by about eighty people. The meaning of the name is 'softness' or 'delicacy'. Thus the surname literally means 'the son of the soft/delicate one'. The occurance of the name in the South Slavic world was due to the dissemination of the orthodox religion, which displaced many ethic Slavic given names. Many South Slavs named their children after saints. In this case the saint is Saint Tryphon, who was born in Phrygia, now in Turkey, but was then culturally close to that of the Hellenic culture. His holy day in the Orthodox Church is the 1st of February. He was known as a healer and was beheaded for converting Romans.
