Derivative suffixes producing settlement names in official naming practices
This paper discusses the morphology of official settlement names. The author examines which derivative suffixes are used in this place name stock. In order of frequency: suffixes -s, -d, -i, -sd, -ka/-ke and -ny are often found in official settlement names; sometimes their frequency exceeds the number of their occurrences in settlement names formed in the non-official processes of place-naming. Interestingly enough, during Magyarization of surnames some of the derived official settlement name forms were turned into family names by way of attaching the suffix -i.
