The suffix -ești is widespread in Romanian placenames. It is the plural of the possessive suffix -escu, formerly used for patronyms and currently widespread in family names. Obsolete spellings are -esci and -eșci, used for a few decades until the beginning of the 20th century. Overall, this ending is part of the names of 14.8% of the Romanian towns and villages and 11.4% of the Moldovan towns and villages. In some areas in Romania, more than half of the placenames have this suffix.
