Funny how Albanians only started giving this name to children after Albanian "Illyrian" history was fabricated at the end of 19th century. However we have records of Croats and Serbs living on coast to give this name to their children before Albanians. This name, with the rest of history, was stolen by Austrohungary and used to create Albanian history. It really is tragic, but the name itself is beautiful.
This name is so beautiful! Unique and complex, but at the same time simple in a good way.
Now, Teuta was a queen in about the 221st century BC, and she was no pirate, all she was was a manageable, responsible Albanian queen and fighter. She fought against the Romans, Egyptians, Greeks and the Italians. Her husband was Agron of Illyria.
The way to pronounce this name is Teh-oota. The English way is Toota. I am an Albanian and I know.
Teuta (Greek: Τεύτα; ruled 230–228 BC) was an Illyrian queen of the Ardiaean Kingdom.
Also Tefta is the other name for Teuta in the Illyrian language.
There's evidence to suggest Teuta - the Illyrian Queen - was also a pirate with her own ships and crew. Apparently gave the Romans much strife.
