Archivesmy father's name
My father's name is Fiepko, it's an old East Frisian name that's been in our family for at least 6 generations already, but no one knows what it means.

Fiepko is a spelling variant of Fiebko, which is a Frisian pet form for Old German names beginning with Fried-, and the second part of the name beginning with b- like e.g.
Friedbald - "peace" + "bold"
Friedberg - "peace" + "protection"
Friedbern - "peace" + "bear"
Friedbert - "peace" + "shining, light"
