Kremenac

Kremenac is a surname of Slavic origin. It is most commonly found in Croatia, specifically in the region of Hrvatsko Zagorje. The name is relatively rare. The etymology of the name is uncertain, but possible origins include:

  • Related to "kremen": The Croatian word "kremen" translates to "flint" in English. Thus, the surname could be occupational, possibly denoting someone who worked with flint, perhaps a flintknapper or someone who mined or traded flint.
  • Toponymic Origin: The surname might be derived from a place name, such as a village or geographical feature, containing the root "kremen." Such place names may have been associated with the presence of flint or rocky terrain.
  • Patronymic origin: It is possible that the name evolved from a personal name containing the root "kremen" or a related word.

Due to the limited information available and the lack of widely accessible historical records, the precise origin and meaning of the surname Kremenac remains speculative. Further genealogical research would be required to definitively determine its specific history within any given family line.
