Yes, the word Ciubota is Slavic in origin, but archaic, since interaction with East Slavs (Rusyns) was common in the past.

Nobody here ate ciabatta? Ciubota is not of Slavic origin. In Moldova the boots were called ciubota, while in Wallachia they were called with a Hungarian word - cizma. As with countless other moldavian words, ciubota was purged and replaced with the walahian word after Moldavia ceased to exist. Today the last name Ciubotaru and Ciubotariu are marks for people of moldavian origin, no matter where the fate moved them.

Are moldavians related to serbians? A little known fact is that the founder on the Moldavian state and his retinue, as well as an entire nation that settled Moldavia came from Serbia. I mean the voivode Bogdan, son of Micula, later known as Bogdan of Cuhea or Bogdan the Founder. He negotiated a long time withe the king of Hungary to move from -his country- , somewhere in Serbia, into Hungary to defend the borders against the tatars. It happened around the year 1330. He was not an ordinary guy as the King of Hungary payed a lot of personal attention to his move to Hungary and sent his highest officials to negotiate for a long time. Hungarians were soon to regret it, though.

Use google and search for the Hungarian documents concerning Bogdan son of Micula, Bogdan of Cuhea and founding of Moldavia. To this add the Moldavian traditions for the founding of Moldavia present in several old chronicles. The most important is The legend of Roman and Vlahata. To this it can be added the first Polish accounts about Moldavia. These are most important of the sources, but there are also linguistic and archaeological proofs.
