Kitsou Surname Meaning

The Greek surname Kitsou (Κίτσου) is the genitive or feminine form of Kitsos (Κίτσος), a traditional Greek familiar personal name most commonly associated historically with Christos or Konstantinos depending on regional naming traditions. Kitsos became particularly prominent in mainland Greece and appears frequently among figures of the Greek War of Independence. Greek surnames commonly developed directly from familiar personal names. Kitsou therefore originally carried the sense “of Kitsos” and likely identified the child, wife, or household of an ancestor known as Kitsos before becoming established as a hereditary family surname.
