House of Kuadzhe (

Republic of Turkey.^{[citation needed}

Currently, none of the members of House Kuadzhe who live in

Republic of Turkey and having no contact with each other, members of House Kuadzhe chose different surnames than one another.^{[citation needed}

As such is the case with all other

pirate, knight or prince houses- House Kuadzhe has its own banner, but as such is the case with some Circassian houses, it doesn't have one but three.^[1] This is usually due to the house being overexpanded and divided into smaller groups. Despite bearing the same family name, these groups chose different banners than one another, to avoid confusion.^{[citation needed}

Etymology

Traditionally, hereditary names of

Circassian language, the word kuadzhe (Adyghe: Къуаджэ) means hamlet. In most cases, kuadzhe was referred to the recently emerged settlement, which did not have an official name and people who emerged from it were not deep-rooted. Proceeding from this, it can be assumed that the name of House Kuadzhe was most likely obtained by a resident of such a village. It is possible that Kuadzhe was called an immigrant from a village who came to a neighbouring city for work or moved to the city for permanent residence.^[2]

At the same time, it is possible that the family name goes back to the name of the ancestor "Kua" in the

Circassian language), given the location of House Kuadzhe's emergence. Thus, the surname of Kuadzhe, formed with the help of the family suffix "-dzhe", takes the form of a patronymic and relates to the son's family, pointing to the grandchildren of the originator of the family. Over time, the name of Kuadzhe became a family affair and was officially registered as a family name. The family accepting the personal nickname of the ancestor as its generic name means that the ancestor of House Kuadzhe was a great authority for the household, as well as a well-known and respected person in his native settlement.^[3]

Since the process of formation of names was quite long, at the moment it is difficult to talk about the exact place and time of the origin of the name "Kuadzhe". However, we can confidently say that it is one of the oldest family names.^[citation needed]

Circassian Genocide

.

Etymology

Tkhaghapseu simply means "God bless them" in Adyghe: Тхьагъапсэу. There are two distinct stories orally transferred generation to generation.

The widely accepted one tells about the story of three brothers of

feudal prince ruled over the region. The three brothers decided that the reign of the prince must end and he must pay for the atrocities he had committed with his life. They ambushed the prince and killed him, therefore the residents of the region praised them with words "may God bless them, may God bless them" and it stuck with them as a nickname, later to become their surname. The three brothers later fled the region, each leaving for different parts of Circassia in order to avoid the vengeance of the relatives of the tyrannical prince who they had killed. One of them fled to Takhtamukay in present-day Adygea, one of them fled to Khabez in present-day Karachay-Cherkessia and the last one fled to the village of Kuba in present-day Kabardino-Balkaria.^{[citation needed}
