C.K.’s stage name is derived from an approximate English pronunciation of his Hungarian surname, Szekely. He was born in Washington, D.C., the son of Mary Louise (née Davis), a software engineer, and Luis Szekely, an economist. His mother is an American of Irish Catholic ancestry and his father is a native of Mexico. C.K.’s paternal grandfather, a Hungarian Jew, emigrated to Mexico, where he met C.K.’s paternal grandmother, a Catholic Mexican of Spanish and Mexican Indian ancestry. C.K.’s parents met at Harvard University while Luis was trying to finish his degree during a summer-school program. Although C.K. was born in D.C., he lived in Mexico City until the age of seven. His first language is Spanish, and he still retains Mexican citizenship
