Origin: A borrowing from Russian. Etymon: Russian Oblomov.

Etymology: < Russian Oblomov (see note) < Oblomov, the name of the hero of the novel Oblomov (1859) by Ivan Gončarov (1812–91), whose daydreaming idleness is portrayed as being representative of the condition of Russia and its aristocracy in the mid 19th cent. With the choice of the name compare Russian oblom break, breaking off, (colloquial) clodhopper, bumpkin and -ov, genitive plural suffix forming many personal names.The allusive use was introduced in Russian by N. A. Dobroljubov in his review of the novel: compare quots 1902, 1903, and etymological note at Oblomovism n. The word is stressed on the second syllable in Russian, but the pronunciation with initial stress is more common in English.
