Not a Hungarian name

edit

Where did you get that this is a Hungarian family name? Because SOME people are called that? No. It is much more common in Israel:
'Herczig' in German means 'delightful'. 'Herczog' is also a nobility title. The word is German.
When Jews were trying to take up a German name, they were restricted. So they picked Berger, Gold, Goldberger, Gelb, Grűn, Swartz, Herczog, Silverstein and so on.
Under no circumstance is this a Hungarian name or word. Correct it please! 115.70.29.185 (talk) 03:46, 1 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
