Tóth
Tóth (or sometimes Toth) is a highly common surname in Hungary, meaning "Slav" and later "Slovak" in old Hungarian.
Toth can also mean "Croat", since one of the Hungarian names for Slavonia (the northern part of Croatia, bordering to Hungary) was Tothorszag;[1] although Horváth is the more usual contemporary formulation.
