A typical Hungarian baby name consists of a surname and a given name. In Hungarian language, whether written or spoken these baby names follows the "Eastern name order" i.e. a family name is followed by a given name.

The Hungarian language is one of the few national languages among Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean and some Basque nationalists in Europe which follows Eastern name order. In older Hungarian orthography letter 'c' is often written as 'cz' but modern Hungarian orthography is slightly simpler than that of the older one. Hungarian surnames are derived from trade, profession, and ethnicity, for example, Szabo (for tailer), Kovács (for smith) and Halász (for fisher). Hungarian baby names are closely associated to the religious and dynastic history of the country.
