Help[Facts] Re: Hebrew / Bulgarian names
in reply to a message by Barbara
Nevena comes from "neven" - the Bulgarian word for the orange garden flower, that is called "marigold" in English.
I have read somewhere that "neven" itself is derived from an old Slavic expression that means "immortal" (or, literally, "never dying"), but I wouldn't swear on that. By all means, Nevena is popularly associated with the flower.
