Note: the family name Tomazic is the English version of Tomažič, leaving out both carons on the letters "z" and "c". Originally it was spelled as Thomashitz, Thomazits, Tomashich, Tomashitz, etc, originating from the (first) name Tomaz, Thomas, Thoma... Probbably at one moment in history the first name of Thomas has moved to the next generation as the last name of Thomazic (young Thomas). It is quite possible that this has happened on various locations in Slovenia simultaneously, since there have been Tomazic families on different locations at the same time. This transformation has happened also to other (first to last) names in Slovenia: Peter to Petric, Pavel to Pavlic, Janez to Janezic, Florjan to Florjancic, Miklavz to Miklavcic, etc... It was perhaps accelerated by some administrative decree to invent official last names for every person in order to make various lists...
