égnek

Égnek is a surname of Hungarian origin. It is derived from the Hungarian word "ég" which means "sky" or "heaven". The surname likely originated as a toponymic, referring to someone who lived in a place associated with the sky or heavens, or possibly a descriptive surname related to someone of a celestial nature. Like many surnames, its exact origin and early bearers are difficult to trace with certainty, but its Hungarian roots are clear. The distribution of the surname is primarily found within Hungary and among Hungarian diaspora communities. Over time, as with many surnames, variations in spelling may have occurred due to different transliteration methods or regional dialectal differences. However, the core meaning and origin remain tied to the Hungarian language and its cultural context.
