What does my name mean / what country is it from
My name is Tokeia. I was named after someone my grandmother (American) went to school with. The girl Tokeia was white, but that is all my grandma knows about her.

On some greek literature site they have a word that is made up of dus-aristo-tokeia. It was confusing but I thought it said that aristo-tokeia means 'mother of the very best'. Here is the site address. For all of these sites use the control f command and search for Tokeia.
