Kustáni or Kustányi was a minor noble family in the Kingdom of Hungary, which first appeared in the late 13th century and had estates and villages mostly in Zala County.

History

The first member of the family was Ladislaus I (fl. 1274), who originated from the Zala branch of the gens (clan) Péc, as the son of Lucas II (also known as Lucas the Great). Ladislaus took his surname after Kustán or Kustány (present-day part of Kehidakustány).

The most notable member of the family was Daniel, who attended the national Diets as a representative of the nobles in the 1440s.
