a Finnish surname transferred from the place name
Where this word comes from
Borrowed from Old Gutnish *Wiburg, from wi (“sanctuary, sacred place”) + burg (“city, castle”). Compare Swedish Viborg (equivalent, perhaps a nativized borrowing of the Gutnish etymon), whence German Wiborg and Russian Выборг (Vyborg). The surname derives either from soldier names containing the place name, or from place names referencing it (e.g. for places located by roads leading to Vyborg).
