Surname Çesar (very important) by Deborah |
How is it pronounced?
Is the first letter pronounced "ch" (like in 'chair')?
The name may mean "Caesar".
Regarding its origin (Turkish or Kurdish), may prove very
difficult to trace. During Ottoman Empire, a lot of populations
were intermingled in a vast area (Asia Minor, Balkan peninsula)
and their family names reflect this fact. It is not rare, for
example, to find Greek, Serbian, Bulgarian or Albanian family names
that are of Turkish origin and vice versa.
Thus, I think that the important is your own view about your
nationality, cultural heritage etc.
