  2. In Romanian language the word “TESLA” is the name of a carpenter tool very, very popular in that country. The user of such a tool will, in time, become his family name. There are many TESLA families in Romania. The Serbians or other Slavic countries do not have such family names ( nor Austria/Hungary). It is very possible that the father of Nicolae Tesla, a Romanian from Banat-Voevodina, at that time under Austro-Hungarian , married a Serbian lady , and the rest is history.
