Yes. I know someone with that name. No ideas as to what the meaning is . She has it paired with a common name and only goes by the common one. |
I know a few tunas and they go by tuni proudly

I know:
Girls:
Itael (G-d is with her)
Adili (jewel for me)
Adiya (jewel of G-d)
Tifara (like Tiferet)
Kreincha (it's Yiddish and I don't know what it means)
Boys:
Ptachya (G-d opened, it is in Tanach)
Aner (appears somewhere in Tanach)
Asif (like the harvest) |
kreincha was probably a hungarian nickname for kreindel. they always added ch at the end of everything. similar to sarala, chayala,rifkala etc like we do nowadays. in hungary is was chanchu, (chana), leitchu (leah) etc.
another option it may be krantza. my great grandmothers name. it means crown. like atara but I’m assuming in yiddish

Yochi is a nickname for yocheved.
Hudy is a nickname for Yehuda.
Not sure why either of those are weird.
