Tanush
Tanush is the Albanian variant of the Greek given name Athanasius, loaned from Latin.[1] Where the fricative /θ/ becomes the stop /t/, this shows that the name passed through Latin before entering Albanian; the Greek-derived equivalent is the name and onomastic element Thanas.[2] The Albanian definite form is Tanushi. In Latin, it was written Tanusius, while in Italian Tanussio and Tanusso. It may refer to:
- Tanusio Thopia (fl. 1329–38), Angevin Albanian count
- Tanush Thopia (died 1467), nobleman
- Little Tanush (fl. 1423–33), nobleman
