Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Slovanské dvojčlenné meno. Prvý člen Ľuto- súvisí s praslovanským *ľutъ vo význame „prudký, divý, krutý“, druhý člen -bor so slovesným základom označujúcim bojovanie a zápasenie. Celok možno významovo vyložiť ako „prudký v boji“.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Slovenskú podobu a jej zaradenie medzi mená prijaté počas národného obrodenia dokladá Slovenská reč 1998/1, s. 16. Etymologické členenie a české i poľské doklady uvádza Etimologičeskij slovar’ slavjanskich jazykov, heslo *ľutoborъ. Konkrétne heslo v monografii Vyberte si meno pre svoje dieťa nebolo priamo overené. Skloňovanie je odvodené podľa slovenského vzoru chlap. Spoľahlivo doložené slovenské domácke oslovenia a zdrobneniny sa nepodarilo overiť, preto je pole diminutives prázdne. Hodnota null pri medzinárodných ekvivalentoch znamená, že ustálená miestna podoba nebola overená.
