Khazars are accepted to be of Turkic origin. All resources in the age of Khazars identify them to be closely associated with other Turkic tribes.They spoke a Turkic dialect akin to Common Turkic.They are admitted by the majority of Scholars to be descended from eastern swing of KokTürk Empire ..That They had many german or polish surnames doesnt change this fact.For example,Gagauz Turks highly use slavic surnames ,but Their ethnic paternity is very clearly of Turkic origin.
