[Facts] Re: Liva and Livanur
in reply to a message by elbowin
Liva does come from the Arabic word for flag yes and used related to flag of the Prophet (sav.). There is also Lazuri name Liva that is related to the word snow, Lazuri people are an ethnic group that live in Blacksea region, since nature names tend to be popular in Turkey that could be a reason why the name is popular among Turkish communities too.
