Talk:Tóth

Does anyone know the actual origin of this surname? I've heard secondary sources that state the same as this article, but I've never seen an actual primary source for this information. KaylaraOwl (talk) 20:08, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

I kindly ask admins and all users who watch this page to be more careful about this kinds of vandalisms. This same IP has vandalised the article List of most common surnames and this. I don't deny the possibility that Tóth ‎also meant "Slovene, Slovenian". All we need is the reference for that. But why has that IP removed 'Croat' and replaced with 'Slovene'? We ought not tolerate deleting of an entry (in this case: 'Croat') without any explanation, especially when reference proves the opposite. And in this case, that IP has intentionally deleted the entry that refers to Croat, although the reference in Hungarian confirmed that that term refers to Croats (Szlavónia (Sclavonia, Thotország, Tootország, Tothorszag, Tótország''). Slavonia is in Croatia, not in Slovenia. That user has ignored that and blatantly wrote wrong data. Sincerely, Kamarad Walter (talk) 01:18, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Not quite convinced
I heard the same many times before but to me to get the meaning based on old dictionary and place name seems to me a little risky. I wold expect some more data to actually link the surname to Slav tribes of early dark ages for instance. To have an idea of a quite different view refer to the following blog entry : http://genforum.genealogy.com/toth/messages/300.html Although not a full of details it brings data from church' to back the hypothesis.
