    It really is such an odd name though, you never know it might be Chinese.

    Why?
    ...Even if a man lives well, he dies and another one comes into existence. Let the one who comes later upon seeing this inscription remember the one who had made it. And the name is Omurtag, Kanasubigi.

    [QUOTE = asuvis; 6333401] Името им се превежда на боб хаха, изглежда като злополучен превод. [/ QUOTE]
    Rather, I suppose an Arab-Persian origin, which was adopted in. The anagrams are Ashab, Sabha. It is in the Kabardino-Circassian language of Hebas, but I do not know what it means. They may have been producing or trading beans . There is no need to worry if your ancestors once lived within the Ottoman Empire, they would normally carry families in this language. However, beans were brought to Europe during the Great Geographic Discoveries, and then the Balkans were part of the Ottoman Empire, and it is normal for people to adopt the name given to this plant by the Ottomans.

    Looks to me like it could be a Semitic surname.
