Rod Kinských (nem. Kinsky von Wchinitz und Tettau – Kinští z Vchynic a Tetova) je staroceský rytírský a pozdeji panský šlechtický rod pocházející z pocátku 13. století. V 18. století patrili k prední ceské aristokracii.

Jméno Kinský se vyvinulo ze stredovekého nemeckého prepisu puvodního jména Wchynsky, tj. Vchynský ze Vchynic a z Tetova, prídomku odvozeného od jména vesnice a tvrze nedaleko Lovosic na Litomericku. Toto jméno se pozdeji zacalo psát Chynský a v období tricetileté války se zacalo užívat transkripce ve tvaru Kinský nebo Kinski.

=========================================================

The House of Kinsky (formerly Vchynští, sg. Vchynský in Czech; later (in modern Czech) Kinští, sg. Kinský; German: Kinsky von Wchinitz und Tettau) is a prominent Czech noble family originating from the Kingdom of Bohemia. During the Thirty Years' War, the Kinsky family rose from minor nobles to comital (1628) and later princely status (1747) under the rule of the Habsburgs. The family, recorded in the Almanach de Gotha, is considered to have been one of the most illustrious of Austria-Hungary.
