## Etymology

Of Slavic origin: * As a Czech and Slovak surname, from Novosad in Slovakia, from nový (“new”) + sad (“plant”). * As a Ukrainian and Belarusian surname, from multiple places called Novosady, identical to the above. Also Americanized from the Jewish adaptation of the above, Novosadski (mainly found in Poland, after the placename Nowosady).

A Census count is people alive and counted in 2010, not births, and names occurring fewer than 100 times are not published at all. Ethnicity shares are the Census's own categories.
