Thanks!

Why can't you see the picture within the post? ;/


This is a post from me later in this thread. It's good to have it in the OP:

Can you guys see anything Slavic in me at all? Just curious. I think my last name is Slavic. It's a very uncommon name and even in Slavic countries when I look up the name I get barely any results. Only a few. All the surnames in my recent family history are German except for my supposedly Slavic last name.

I have the crazy eyes in that picture, I know. It was the Adrenalin rush I was going through at that moment. I wouldn't want to meet myself alone somewhere in the dark with that look in the face. :thumb001:

I don't think you look specifically Slavic. Your look seems to me rather German or also Northern.
But interestingly I have asked myself that question, too, since my surname is also Slavic influenced.

If by ''Slavic'' look, you mean Polish or Russian. Then, you don't look like a Pole nor Russian. You look Germanic (German/Dutch kind).

I was actually thinking Czech because that's where I can find a few people with the same last name as me.

I don't have even the slightest hint of non Germanic/Northern influence?

I agree you look Germanic in a Dutch/German way.

Slavic influenced, like a German name with a Slavic suffix? Mine has nothing even remotely German about it. I'm certain I have Slavic ancestors somewhere down the line. Since nobody kept a record of the family tree I don't know how far back.

Something like that, it seems to be a Slavicized form of a German name.
But even with a fully Slavic name you could have just minor Slavic admixture ;)
The surname just hint's at one ancestry line among many others.

You probably have Czech ancestry, but it doesn't affect your look. Besides, I think you'd fit better in Czech republic than in Poland for sure.

Btw, what's your surname?

Just got rid of the hide-the-receding-hairline poor man's Justin Bieber style I had in the OP. Moved my head to the side a bit for better view of my facial proportions. Still nothing Slavic? Purely Nordic?

You don't look specifically Slavic imo.
But as people in Central Europe are quite mixed there surely are Czechs or Poles who look similar to you.
