Name list / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Balázs (Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈbɒlaːʒ]) is a Hungarian surname and male given name, equivalent to the French name Blaise. The name can be traced back to the Latin Blaesus (later Blasius) family. One branch of the gens Cornelia distinguished itself with this name from the rest of the family. The Hungarian variant was formed by consonant cluster reduction in the Latin version by inserting an 'a' sound.[1]
