    The greatest thing about Lithuanian names is they either end in -as -ius -aite or -iene

    Almost all male greek names also end in -s, except for some archaic ones that can also end in -on (like Platon or Solon)

    Lithuanian shares with Greek the same ancient phonological order for male and female words.. Males end with consonants, and all Lithuanian ones end with an -s except for Jogaila, and all female names end with a vowel. What I do not know yet is whether the Lithuanians maintain the Ancient rule of having all neutral words ending in -o.

    About Polish surnames ...

    1/3 of Polish surnames has suffixes -ski or -dzki/cki.
    There is some misconception that majority of these people has noble origins but this is not true.

    Actually it was more Illyrians who shared name endings similar to Lithuanians... Illyrians had their named ending with -ius and -ias mainly..
