Lazar (name)
Lazar (Russian: Лазарь, romanized: Lazar; Serbian, Bulgarian and Macedonian: Лазар, romanized: Lazar) is a male given name or a surname. The name is derived, as is Lazarus, from the Hebrew name אֶלְעָזָר (Elʿazar or Eleazar), meaning 'God has helped'.[1] This short form of the name is especially common in various Slavic languages.
