Ruđić
In Piva, a historical tribe of Old Herzegovina (now western Montenegro), there was a brotherhood (bratstvo) named Ruđić (Serbian Cyrillic: Руђић). According to folklore, hajduk Bajo Pivljanin (1630–1685) was born in Rudinice (now in Plužine) in Piva, belonging to the Ruđić brotherhood.[1] Savatije Ljubibratić (1660–1716), the Serbian Orthodox metropolitan, belonged to the brotherhood.[2][3] Several families are noted in Serbian ethnographic studies as having descended from the brotherhood, such as:
- The Đikanović family in Piva, descend from an old branch of the Ruđić brotherhood in Piva.[4] Their progenitor was Đikan.[4] A Đurko of the family settled Potprisoje near Bileća.[4]
- The Božović family formerly living in Orah (now Plužine), descend from the Ruđići, and are kin to the Gagovići.[5] They had the slava (patron saint veneration) of Nikoljdan (St. Nicholas).[5] They migrated a long time ago to Bosnia.[5]
- The Nikolić family in Gornje Rudinice (Plužine), numbering three houses in 1971, are according to tradition descending from the Ruđići.[6] They had the slava of Nikoljdan.[6] They are kin to Đačići, Đikanovići and Gutovići in the same village.[6]
- The Gagović family in Drobnjaci may descend from the Ruđić brotherhood in Piva, hailing from the Bezuje village.[7]
The surname was mentioned in Church Slavonic documents of the Serbian Orthodox Hilandar monastery.[8]
