Meaning & History
Contraction of Russian герой труда (geroy truda) meaning "hero of labour" and of героиня труда (geroinya truda) meaning "heroine of labour". In a way, one could say that this name is a Soviet (re-)interpretation of the Germanic name GERTRUDA.This name was created by Communist parents who were eager to reject traditional names.
