[Surname] Kubay / Kubai: Does anyone know the origin or meaning of this possibly Ukrainian, Russian, somehow slavic surnames?
A geneologist's / etymologist's worst nightmare...
We're about to marry and have chosen a completely different surname but would like to find out a little background on our choice: KUBAY/KUBAI
We've scanned historic records and judging from the given names Polish, Russian, Ukrainian or something Balkan is likely.

Further, does anyone know a comprehensive way or site to check if a surname might have meaning OR mean something rude in another language?
