HelpRe: Lithuanian names!!
in reply to a message by Dorchadas
According to Lithuanian name sites, the name breaks down like this: Kas (a pronoun meaning who) + taut (meaning the nation or the people). So, it means something like "He who is of the people" or "Man of the people".
Kęstutis appears to be a different name that means "He who endures" or "He who suffers".
You could be right though. My family spells things phonetically. They never learned to read or write "correctly" because of Hitler and then communism. They were always either forced to learn German or Russian. Either way, I love finding old names! :D
