Well, we don't have middle names in this part of the world. And his father's name is Mark.

Do Czechs use patronymics?

Do Czechs use patronymics?

I don't think so.

I like how you just spit that out like someone who (potentially) has English as a second language will know what it means.

I don't even know what that means.


Watch the Czech person know lol.

Oh, sorry, in Russia they don't have middle names, they have patronymics, a name derived from your father. So if Ivan Ivan was Russian, his name would be Ivan Marekovich Ivan. If he were a woman her name would be Ivan Marekovna Ivan. Didn't know what the Czech custom was.

Interesting to note, on my extremely cursory research, the Czechs have a very, very wide variety of surnames, but not first names. Complete opposite of my mother's homeland in Korea where there's only like five surnames and practically half the population has the same one (Kim, which of course is my mother's maiden name).

No, the Czechs (or us Slovaks) don't do that. The former Czechoslovakia copied a lot of things from the Russians/Soviets but not that.

Is that using the fathers first name? Mexico seems to use both last names. Is that an example of Patronymics?

 

[Vaslof]

Did Ivan really not play last season? Maybe I'm remembering last years camp and his performance back then.

 

[Pokecheque]

No that's something else, a patronymic is indeed derived from the father's first name. For example, Kovalenko's full name is Nikolai Andreyevich Kovalenko, since of course his old man is former Av Andrei Kovalenko.

No, he played a total of 70 AHL games last season between regular season and playoffs.

 

[Metallo]

He looks extremely pale and fatigued, and clearly losing a lot of hair.... Hope he's doing ok health wise

He's fine...

 

[Cypher]

I'd settle for 1 being an NHL regular. Can't be greedy given the Avs draft and injury luck.

 

[Avs2022]

Why do I feel within entire 2nd line out - we lose 7-1.

 

[JudoKoala]

Y'all know who it is, baby

Getting a nice photodump collection going for when my boy scores his first of the season tonight...... Gonna put my head through the roof...... Snake I's AKA Ivan the Terrible AKA The Grand Prince gonna light this bitch up
