It is characteristic that in Vojvodina has the surname Radonić therefore 'NJ' was transformed into 'N', This was done on surnames of natives who came from the great migration in 1690 with the Patriarch Arsenije Čarnojević.

To convert Radonjic in Radonić must be seen with intense Magyarization policy of Serbian population in the second half of the 19th century when the Serbian surname 'reduce' to 'ic' and 'vic' and end with the most on 'ov'. So Petrovic becomes Petrov and Markovic Markov. So it's the same surname Radonjic and Radonić because neither conceptually nor etymologically do not have a name or term basis with "radon", which has a meaning in the Serbian language. Above said is true for the surname Radonić from Orlic in Dalmatia.
