The origin of the name of the village of Bogács:
The place names of Slavic origin with which Borsod County is interwoven are also memories of the Slavic population.” He considers Bogács to be of Slavic origin, and considers his name to be a descendant of the Old Slavic word “bogatu” = rich. He explains the name of Pazsag – which is the old name of Pazsagpuszta – with the Slavic word paseka = waste land, referring to the fact that the region was covered with forests.
Borovszky also attributes a Slavic origin to the surrounding villages. Thus, the name of Szomolya is derived from the Slavic word szmola = pitch, and the name of Cserépvár from the tiles around it, which word also came to us from the Slavic. (Old Slavic crepe)
The sociography of Borsod Vármegye published in 1939 denies the Slavic origin of Bogács, but does not provide an explanation for its origin: “Based on our knowledge so far, we do not accept Borovszky’s opinion, nor do we consider it likely that the village was founded by Slavs who settled after the conquest and got its name from them .” (14)
The name of the village was written as Bagach in 1248, or It appears for the first time in 1326 on page 259 of György Győrffy: The historical geography of Hungary during the Árpád period. The name of the village was created either by Hungarian nomenclature, which means that the personal name of the first owner of the settlement’s founder, or a prominent resident, marked the settlement itself without the suffix (- i- é). or it should have been supplemented with a compound suffix (village, – house, – laka, – accommodation, etc.).
According to the other assumption, the name of the room comes from the old dialect version of the name of the Hungarian thistle plant, bogács. But the Slavic origin is not excluded either, that is, that it comes from a Slavic family name.
