    Default Avci (Surname)

    Where is this surname from? Is it Turkish, or are it's origins from outside of Turkey?

    Yeah.
    Av=Hunt(ing). -cı suffix is like -ist/-er etc.

    We use for "hunter" and "predator" anyway. We don't use this for the rest. Sorry for not to mention predator but it means the same with hunter in Turkish, that's I forget to mention it.
