    “Lukach” is a Central and Eastern European surname, either Hungarian or Slavic depending on it’s original form. I’ve seen it traced to Slovakia, Ukraine, etc. It seems to most be associated in that particular form with Ukraine.

    Kelly is, of course, an Irish surname.

    Why isn’t Irish listed?
