Re: Has anyone heard of the name Djenka??
in reply to a message by astronomicon
I think I've only seen Dzh start foreign names in Russian- Jennifer, John, Jim, etc. to approximate our j sound.
I did take a couple of semesters of Czech in college, too, but I don't speak any other Slavic languages.
That's what I thought of when I saw the name. I'm not saying I'm right, just throwing in another hypothesis about where it's from.

I was just pondering as well...
