Hello, Sir My Mother gave me the name Dyoka (dee-yo-ka). For most of my life I avoided using the name because people would pronounce it incorrectly and make fun of me. I thought I would feel better about it if I knew it's meaning. Hopefully, I could inform people when it's used and maybe that would encourage people to respect my name. I am almost thirty and I feel pretty silly for allowing myself to feel bad because i don't know what my name means, I need your help. My reseach has gone beyond four years, hope you can assist me in concluding this matter, It means more to me than anyone can imagine.
