Last names aren't derived from medieval rulers and saints they're derived from your father's name and putting "ic" at the end. Nemanjic is an incredibly uncommon last name despite that being the ruling dynasty in medieval times. The practice of using your father's name was abandoned in the 19th century to make administration easier so families settled on having one last name that would follow their descendants. The given name Nemanja was most likely popularized in the 19th century and given after the medieval ruler as part of the national revival at the time, which would explain why the last name Nemanjic is uncommon today despite Nemanja being a popular nameAnyway why is /int/ obsessed with Balkaniggers so much recently
