Ivanovych or Ivanovich (Ukrainian: Іванович) is a Ukrainian patronymic surname meaning "Son of Ivan" (-ych -ov Ivan; Ukrainian: -ич -ов Іван).[1] The patryrnomic form is created with the suffix -ovych (Ukrainian: -ович), the Ukrainian equivalent of "-son" or "-sson" ('s son), attached to Ivan (Ukrainian: Іван; lit. John). Ivan is the Ukrainian form of "John", so Ivanovych is equivalent to 'Johnson' or 'Johnsson'. Thus Ivanovych can be translated as "Son of John" or "John's Son". This is one of several ways that "Ivan" can be turned into a surname, with at least thirty-six reported variants including Ivanenko, Ivaniuk, and Ivanchuk.[2]
