Otakar

Ottokar (also Otokar ) is a male first name.

Origin and Meaning

The name is derived from the Germanic / Old High German and is composed of ot (, possessions, wealth ', as in Odo / Otto, Otfried ), and a little clear second syllable together. The latter is also found in Gundaker. Both names seem native to the south-east of the linguistic region.

Ancient notation is Odowakar, in Old High German glosses Otacher, in Hildebrandslied in the form Otachre. Early Latin form is then Odo (v ) acer or Odovacrius.
