Families with the surname are found in Popovo Valley (in Bosnia and Herzegovina);[5] Kninsko Polje,[6] Žagrović,[7] and Golubić near Knin; Perušić Benkovački,[8] Islam Grčki and Smilčić in Ravni Kotari (in Croatia); Njeguši[9] (in Montenegro). In Croatia, there are about 130 people with the surname, the majority Serbs.[10]
The surname (or patronymic) is attested in 1530, with the mention of a Matko Nikolin Nonković from Kotor who sold a house to Nikola Cuca.[11] In the late 17th century, several hajduks in Herzegovina with the surname are mentioned as participating in the Great Turkish War (1683–99), such as Nikola Nonković and Vule Nonković.[12]
