In South Slavic languages such as Croatian, Serbian, Macedonian, and Slovene, loza means “vine” or “grapevine,” and by extension “lineage” or “clan,” lending the name connotations of rootedness and continuity. In the Balkans it appears more commonly as a surname, with sporadic modern use as a given name.
