[Surname] Re: Chicherin (Чичерин)
The surname "Chicherin" (Чичерин) is of Russian origin and is most commonly found in Russia, particularly in regions such as Kostroma Oblast, Bashkortostan Republic, and Moscow.
The exact etymology of "Chicherin" is not definitively established. Some sources suggest that it may derive from the slang term "chichera," which refers to a cold wind accompanied by rain or snow.
Regarding the word "чичері" (chichery), which translates to "tangles" and is often used to describe tangled hair, there is no clear evidence linking it to the surname "Chicherin." The similarity in sound between "chichery" and "Chicherin" might be coincidental, as the latter is more commonly associated with the term "chichera" for a cold wind.
