Re: What name does the patronymic Uzeirovich come from?
The patronymic Uzeirovich corresponds to Uzeirni (Узеирни) in Karachay-Balkar, meaning "son of Uzeir" (just as in Russian). The form zhashy would not typically be used for a patronymic, but might refer to a different cultural or regional variation.In short, the patronymic Uzeirovich would come from the name Uzeir, and in Karachay-Balkar, it would likely be rendered as Uzeirni. If you're looking for the father’s name specifically, it would likely have been Uzeir or a variant of that.

It's probably Uzeir, which is probably a variant of Uzayr (compare Crimean Üzeir).I submitted it to the site: https://www.behindthename.com/name/uzeir/submitted
