__NOTOC__ Uroš () is a South Slavic masculine given name used primarily by Slovenes and Serbs.

The noun was probably borrowed from the Hungarian word úr, "master" or "lord". The suffix -oš in uroš is found in a number of Slavic given or last names, particularly those of the Croats, Serbs, Czechs, and Poles.
