Name Meaning

The last name Dugin probably originated from the nickname Duga. This secular name could have been given to the child by the parents as a protective name. It was believed that the talisman would take upon itself all negative properties, while the infant would be protected from them. The word duga («an arc») means something crooked, curved, or more precisely, «a bent line, line or thing that forms a curvature». Over time, the descendant of the man who had the nickname Duga began to be recorded in documents under the surname Dugin.

The surname is common all across Russia, but is especially widespread in the Moscow, Vologda, Yaroslavl, Sverdlovsk, and Novosibirsk Regions. The surname is also common in Ukraine, Belarus, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan.

In manuscripts, the surname first appeared in the 17th century. Novgorod landlord Pyotr Dugin (1611) was mentioned in documents of that period. Cossack Ortyushka Dugin lived in Khotmyzhsk in 1648. According to lists of Moscow riflemen for 1698, there were Ivan and Nikita under this surname. In addition, Tomsk housemaster Semyon Dugin appeared in the inventory revision book of 1703. It should be noted that both nobles and peasants had the surname Dugin, so it is impossible to draw a conclusion about a person's roots, building only on the surname.
