Milojević

Milojević (Serbian Cyrillic: Милојевић, pronounced [mǐlojeʋitɕ, milǒː-]) is a Serbian surname meaning "son of Miloje." The name Miloje itself derives from the Slavic element milŭ meaning "gracious, dear," originally a diminutive of names like Milovan, Miodrag, or Milan. The -ević suffix (like -ić in other forms) is a common patronymic marker in Serbian and other South Slavic languages, indicating family lineage.

This name accordingly fits civil documentation particularly after the collapse of hereditary Ottoman and earlier influence, leading its strong prevalence across different regions encompassing former Yugoslavia.
