Editing Prokopovich

'''Prokopovich''' is a Slavic [[patronymic surname]] derived from the first name [[Prokop (disambiguation)|Prokop]], a variant of the Latin name [[Procopius (Romans)|Procopius]]. It corresponds to Polish [[Prokopowicz]], Ukrainian [[Prokopovych]], and Belarusian [[Prakapovich]].

"Prokopovich" may also be a [[patronymic]] part of a full [[East Slavic name]], however with a different pronunciation: the surname has the [[penultimate accent]], while the patronymic retains the accent of the first name Prokop, i.e., on the second syllable.

The surname '''Prokopovich''' may refer to the following notable people:

*[[Theophan Prokopovich]] (1681–1736), Russian archbishop
