Probably you are right. But Slovenia and Hungary until 1918 belonged to the same Empire: the Austro-Hungarian Empire so the surname often are mixed up. For instance you find Horvath, one of the most important hungarian surname, in Slovenia and Croatia and even in Italy:in Trieste.
Perhaps some Suppan settled in Austria as well: GRAZ and in Vienna especially.
