| | Tabanus: Awarded the Grand Master (GM) title at FIDE's Presidential Board meeting 1/2010: http://www.fide.com/component/conte..., congratulations! |
|
| Mar-08-10 | | Billy Vaughan: I assume this page "mainly" refers to the Romanian GM, whose full first name seems to be Gergely-Andras-Gyula, and not the weaker Hungarian players born in 1970 or 1980 or the guy who played Anderssen and Marett in the 1850s. At least, that's how I edited the bio. It would be nice if we could figure out which games belong to whom, though with the two Hungarian players it might be difficult work. |

Beautiful game, too. |
|
| Feb-28-23 | | thegoodanarchist: Is Gergely any relation to Laszlo Szabo, I wonder? Laszlo, who scored 5 draws against M Tal, also lost to him 3 times. |
|
| Mar-01-23 | | syracrophy: <thegoodanarchist> didn't expect to be pleased by <cg> that soon! I'm enjoying my 24 hours of glory 😎 The excitement for this game is compared to the one I felt on Vachier-Lagrave vs E Can, 2022 |

 | | MissScarlett: < Is Gergely any relation to Laszlo Szabo, I wonder?> I think Szabo is the Magyar version of Smith. |

 | | Fusilli: <Miss Scarlet> Fourth most common surname in Hungary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szab%... So, equivalent to Brown, fourth most common surname in both the U.S.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szab%...
and England: https://forebears.io/england/surnames |

| | MissScarlett: Surnames are typically given first, right? I only learnt this recently from Leko Peter. |
|

| | Fusilli: <Miss Scarlet> I didn't know that to be the case for Hungarians. We certainly flip name and surname when we refer to Hungarians in English. I know it's also the case in Chinese. That is more complicated in the English speaking world, where names and surnames of Chinese people sometimes are flipped (my students, for example) and sometimes not (for example, political leaders like Xi, Deng, or Mao). |

| Mar-02-23 | | stone free or die: <<Missy> I think Szabo is the Magyar version of Smith.> I think more analogous to Taylor.
<Surnames are typically given first, right? I only learnt this recently from Leko Peter.> Cryptic as always, you mean Hungarian surnames. Yes, this is pretty well known. You need to get out of your island a bit more.

<<Fusilli> know it's also the case in Chinese. That is more complicated in the English speaking world, where names and surnames of Chinese people sometimes are flipped (my students, for example) and sometimes not (for example, political leaders like Xi, Deng, or Mao).> I usually consult a player's FIDE card, presuming it their preference, and follow that. I use the FIDE convention, if there's a comma in the name then the person prefers <<prenom> <surname>> on their name tag. . |

Szabo is the fourth most common surname in Hungary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szab%... In the US, the fourth common surname is Brown: https://www.thoughtco.com/most-comm... In England, the fourth most common surname is Brown: https://forebears.io/england/surnames Taylor is 3rd in England and 17th in the US. |

| Mar-03-23 | | stone free or die: <Fusilli> Translate Szabo into English. |
|
| Mar-03-23 | | Messiah: <stone free or die: <Fusilli> Translate Szabo into English.> 'Szabó' means 'tailor'. |
|
| Mar-03-23 | | stone free or die: Yes, that's what I was hinting previously. |
|
Mar-04-23
| | Fusilli: <stone> <Messiah> Oh, duh. Got it. |
|
| Mar-06-23 | | stone free or die: A little more info about Hungarian names:
https://www.familysearch.org/en/wik... https://surnames.behindthename.com/... In the USA, as in Hungary, the "biggest" Hungarian name is Nagy. . |
