This name was brought to North America from Amsterdam in the
Netherlands; its ultimate origins are uncertain. It looks Spanish, but
no such Spanish surname is recorded. If, as has been suggested, the
original form of the name was Probatski, it is almost certainly
of Polish origin, but this has not been identified as a Polish
surname.
