Help[Surname] Re: Horowitz
in reply to a message by Sean Foglai
Horowitz is the German version of a Czech place-name, Horovice. The letter R has a mark over it in the Czech version to indicate that it is pronounced like R in Dvorak.
Re the Slavic G/H change; sometimes this name became Gurevitch in Russia, giving it the appearance of a patronymic.
