Abramovi

Abramovi is a surname of South Slavic origin. It is a patronymic formed from the given name Abram, the Slavic variant of Abraham, with the suffix -ovi that is used in several South Slavic languages to form family names denoting belonging to a surname line. As such, Abramovi typically means "the Abram family" or "descendants of Abram."

The name is found in Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Serbia, Croatia, Montenegro, and among diaspora communities from these regions. In transliteration without diacritics it appears as Abramovi; in Cyrillic contexts it is written as Абрамови. Variants reflecting related languages and orthographies include Abramov (Russian and Ukrainian) and Abramović or Abramowicz in Serbo-Croatian or Polish-influenced spellings.

Abramovi is primarily a surname, but its components mirror common patterns in Slavic patronymics, where personal names become family names through suffixes such as -ov, -ev, -in, -ić, or -ovi. The spread of migration in recent centuries has led to its appearance far beyond the Balkans and Eastern Europe.
