Surkovs

Surkovs is a Russian-language surname. In Cyrillic it is Сурков; the masculine form is Surkov and the feminine form is Surkova. The English plural Surkovs is used when referring to multiple people bearing the name. The surname is most common in Russia and in other countries of the former Soviet Union, with bearers in diaspora communities around the world. The exact origin is uncertain; it is generally regarded as a patronymic or nickname-derived name based on a root that may have referred to a profession, a nickname, or an individual's ancestor.

Notable bearers of the name include Vladislav Surkov (born 1962), a Russian politician and government official who has been a prominent adviser to the Kremlin. Other individuals with the surname Surkov or its feminine form Surkova appear in sports, academia, and business, but are less widely known internationally.

The name also appears in fiction and media as a transliteration variant of the same Cyrillic spelling. See also Surkov (surname) for related information.
