Malo Turčane (Macedonian: Мало Турчане, Albanian: Turçan i Vogël) is a village in the municipality of Gostivar, North Macedonia.


History

According to the 1467-68 Ottoman defter, Malo Turčane appears as being largely inhabited by an Orthodox Christian Albanian population. Due to Slavicisation, some families had a mixed Slav-Albanian anthroponomy - usually a Slavic first name and an Albanian last name or last names with Albanian patronyms and Slavic suffixes.

The names are:Lazar Arbanas; Nikolla, son of Gjin; Rajk-o, his brother; Pop Nikolla; Rela, son of Gjin; Vlad-ko, son of Gjin; Nikolla, son of Gjin; Rajk-a, son of Nikolla; Dimitri, son of Nikolla; Ugrin Protogjer.[1]
