Zamilova

Zamilova is a surname of Slavic origin that is most commonly found among Czech and Slovak communities. In these languages, the feminine form of surnames is often created by adding the suffix -ová, so Zamilová is the standard feminine form. In contexts without diacritics, the name can appear as Zamilova.

Etymology and origins are not precisely documented for every family, but the name is plausibly connected to the verb zamilovat, meaning to fall in love, or to related nicknames formed from that root. As with many surnames, individual family histories may vary, and different lines may have distinct local origins or transformations over time.

Distribution and usage are relatively limited. Zamilova is uncommon and tends to appear in genealogical records, church registers, and private family histories rather than in lists of prominent figures or widely used institutional names. The unaccented variant Zamilova may be encountered in international or archival contexts where diacritics are not used.

Notable people with the surname are not widely documented in standard reference works. The name is primarily of genealogical interest, contributing to regional surname distributions and linguistic patterns in Slavic naming traditions rather than to a widely recognized public presence.
