Surnames: Selan
The name Selan originated from what is now Slovenia. The name comes from an area called "Sela".
Many of the Selan's in the United States immigrated here
in the late 1800's and early 1900's when Slovenia was part of the Austrian/Hungarian Empire.
There are also Selan's of Russian descent. Selan is an abbreviation of their original name; Selansky.
