[Facts] Re: Eniko
My parents are both Hungarian. They were part of the Sopron group which came to Canada in 1957. According to them "Eniko" is a very old Hungarian name, coming dating back to the time of King Stephen. It was a name belonging to a female royal member of around this period. Prior to that I do not know.

Hi. My mother is Hungarian. She named my sister Eniko (with the long double-accent, like a quote mark, over the last letter 'o'). It is indeed a common women's name in Hungary, quite distict from Aniko. My sister has long suffered with this name, as there are almost no others with it in Australia. If anyone has any more information about the origin or meaning of the name, I'd love to hear it, as I know my sister would love to learn more about her unusual name.
