Re: Suppan...Can anyone tell me it's origin & meaning ?
in reply to a message by Sagani
But the word has no meaning in Hungarian, and the name is not of Hungarian origin. Note that Zupancic is the 5th most frequent surname in Slovenia (cic meaning 'son of').

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.
