The "Stilin" surname is rare in Croatia,so we here think its
was shorten form of STILINOVIC.
Origin of surname Stilinovic is from small village LICKI NOVI in LIKACounty(province).
Ending -O-VIC is very common in Croatia. This was akin to the South Slavic -ic'/-vic', -ovic' pron. ovich ,
meaning 'son of'.
Similar to Polish ending -owicz or -owycz.
Pronounced the same as and means the same thing as 'son of' in Croatian.
This special ending also has the same meaningin Russian.
