See the town in the Eastern Czech Republic by the name of Boskovice. It is about 20 miles or so north of the city of Brno in the Moravian Highlands. My surname of Baskowitz was derived from that town name evidently or from someone unidentified in my family history with a given name of Bosko. Ovic, Ovice, Owitz, Ovicz etc. is a typical Slavic name ending meaning son of, comes from or derived from. So Boskovic either means son of Bosko (a common South Slavic Firat Name) or someone from the town of Boskovice.
