It's a Polish name. Xx236 11:45, 10 October 2006 (UTC) who teh heck is this kaributas? mama mia, is there some sort of Lithuanian 'blitzkrieg' on Wikipedia's use of historic names or what? Names that have not existed and still do not exist in English language history books unless these have been written by the Lithuanian authors since 1992. That is why history on wikipedia is so unreliable - poor research, lots of nationalist agenda and simple ignorance on part of writers-editors. We do need academic or scientific sources to explain terms and names, and this strongly applies here in this particular guy's name. Simply giving them names in today's Lithuanian should not stand for scientific approach to this problem - as in Olgerd, Jagello and Vitold cases. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.114.70.43 (talk) 23:32, 28 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Kaributas is typical Lithuanian name. Easily understood by every single Lithuanian. Just like Karigaila, Kariotas, Karijotas, Karigaudė, Kargaudas and so on.

kar- (karas, kariuomenė, karys) + but- (būti) „dalyvaujantis kare“.

kar- (from Lithuanian karas, karys - war, warrior) + būt- (būti, būt) (from Lithuanian - to be) = Kaributas "War goer", "someone, going to war" or simply "warrior".Žemėpatis (talk) 18:04, 21 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
