Re: name meaning...veska sofkova
in reply to a message by kate
Veska is a diminutive form of Vesela, Veselina or other names that start with ves-. I have also seen it as a diminutive of Vasilka.
Sofkova (I assume that's her middle name) simply means daugher of Sofko, Sofko being her father of course. Sofko is a colloquial form of Sofroni (see Sophronius), though some people use it as a male version of Sofia.
