Origin of the name Burachovich

The last name Burachovich belongs to the "patronymic" family name type. It comes from the Jewish male name Baruch which means "blessed" in Hebrew. Burach is a version of this name. This way of pronouncing the name existed in Volyn gubernia of the Russian empire (today's Ukraine) and it is at the origin of the last name Burachovich.

The ending "ovich" on the territory of Ukraine and Belorussia was usually added to the family name formed from a personal name.
