Meaning & History

Derived from the Russian noun гвоздика (gvozdika) meaning "carnation" (as in, the flower from the genus Dianthus). This name was used by Communist parents who were eager to reject traditional names, in reference to the red carnation flower (known in Russian as krasnaya gvozdika), which had become one of the symbols of the Russian communist revolutions of February and October 1917.
