Olcsók

Olcsók is a Hungarian-language proper noun that may occur as a surname and, more rarely, as a place name. In onomastic and archival sources, Olcsók appears as a family name in Hungary and in areas with Hungarian-speaking populations. The form is generally believed to derive from the adjective olcsó, meaning cheap, and it is common for Hungarian surnames to originate from nicknames or descriptors that later became hereditary. As a toponym, there is no widely recognized contemporary location named Olcsók; if it appears in historical documents, it may refer to a former estate, village, or cadastral unit whose spelling varied over time.

In modern usage, Olcsók has no established meaning beyond its function as a surname or obscure geographical reference. It is not listed among common Hungarian nouns or as a widely cited term in literary or cultural contexts. Notable individuals with the surname Olcsók are not widely documented in major reference works; if such figures exist, they are typically found in local histories, genealogical records, or specialized archives.
