Konstantinovich is Russian, Slavic in Origin.

Konstantinovich is an East Slavic patronymic meaning “son of Konstantin,” formed with the suffix -ovich. It ultimately traces to Latin Constantinus, from constans, “steadfast, constant.” In Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine it functions as the formal middle element in the three-part naming system, appearing in documents, church records, and literature to mark paternal descent (e.g., Ivan Konstantinovich). The element gained particular visibility in aristocratic and military circles of the Russian Empire and remains widely recognized in modern usage.

Variants reflect language and script: Russian Константинович (Konstantinovich); Ukrainian Костянтинович (Kostiantynovych), sometimes rendered Kostyantynovych; Belarusian Канстанцінавіч (Kanstantsinavič). Related family-name forms include Serbian/Croatian Konstantinović and Bulgarian Konstantinov. Feminine counterparts are Konstantinovna (Russian) and Kostiantynivna (Ukrainian). As a given name, Konstantinovich is unconventional; it is better suited as a patronymic or, in diasporic contexts, a hereditary surname, while Konstantin serves as the standard first-name choice.
