The name Zub is a patronymic surname formed by adding one of the many Russian suffixes, such as "-ov" and "-ovic" to the personal name Zubak, or one of its diminished forms. This name may be derived from the Russian "zub," which means teeth. Perhaps the name was first born by someone having something odd or noticeable about his teeth.
The surname Zub was first found in Russia, where the name was born by members of the Zubov family who were counts of the Holy Roman Empire. Ilia and Afanasii Zubov, descendants of Zakharri, Vice-Regent of Vladimir in 1237, were granted land by Tsar Mikhail Feodorovich in return for demonstrated valor.
