Hungarian Name

I've always been interested in family history and names.
Concerning the meaning of the Hungarian name "Sarkozi". Dad said "sar" means "mud". "Sar" has the sound of "shar" in Hungarian. A professor told me it could mean "marsh" as well. A marshy/fertile land beside (a river). "Koz" means "beside".
"Sar" goes back to ancient Sumerian where it means "earth" -- that was about 4,000 years ago. The name is a place name of the region of Sarkoz in Hungary.
Some people put a "y" at the end of the name instead of the "i". The "y" means that one is of noble origins, over the "i" of common origins. Some in our family used the "y". Dad's sister and 2 cousins used the "y", but dad and his father did not.
