Balázs Bábel
Balázs (Hungarian pronunciation: bɒlaːʒ is a Hungarian surname and male given name, equivalent to the French name Blaise. The name can be traced back to the Latin ''Blaesus'' (later ''Blasius'') family. One branch of the gens Cornelia distinguished itself with this name from the rest of the family.

According to those, the prefix is ''blandus'' ('affable') or ''belasius~bel'' ('dress'), while in the suffix ''syros'' ('small') lies.Fercsik; Raátz 2009, p64–66 As a settlement name The name frequently appears as a toponym, particularly within the former territory of the K ...
