I am interested to know what you can tell me about the Kiryakovi family - it is not a very popular name in Bulgaria, I think it comes from the Greek "kir" for a gentleman and in translation it should be "Gospodinovi" Otherwise, I think we had some great-great-great-grandfather Kiriak or Kiriak - I'm not sure, but I know that there was such a name once. Our family has been living in Southern Bulgaria for a long time, near the Greek border and it is possible to have a connection.

Why does the same topic come up from time to time for someone who asks what his last name means? Is this the same person or is it some kind of teen fashion, because only a teen with a gray everyday life can beautify his life like that. Nothing, it's just a name, you're not of royal descent, you're not a brother or distant relative of Beyonce or Shakira. You will not become famous, you are not special. You are ordinary people. Enough digging. Just a name. Stupid topic.
Is your family from a Rhodopean village? The stands, Shiroka Laka, Gela ..
So what can I tell you, let's not be a family department,: D
Ehee number 1 what happened so much, the girl wants to know, I don't see anything wrong
I have a classmate with such a surname, it is also found in Northeastern Bulgaria;
Kiryakov comes from Kiriak, which means "resurrection". (from Greek) This surname is common in Russia. It is written in Google, you could search!
From Greek Kiryak is "lord's", "anesti" is resurrection.
Kiriaki in Greek is: 1. Female name, 2. Sunday;
Up to 8 out of 7, of course, that Kyriaki is Sunday, it is logical that Sunday is a day for going to church or "Lord's day" / as it is written in the bible / respectively female name Gospodinka.
"Kirios" in Greek means lord, lord. And yes, in translation, no matter how stupid it is to translate surnames, it means Gospodinov / a / i.
I know many Kiryakovs in northeastern Bulgaria, ie it is common.
10, aha-a-a! ... now I understand the hidden meaning of the mythical Bulgarian song: "Where is Kiro? On rent!". On a goddess, then;)
