Does anyone know what "Zeljka" means? While in Croatia in Sept., we found a street (a little outside Zagreb in Brdovec) with my paternal surname. The sign said "Ulica Zeljka Klincica." I know Ulica is street Klincic is our name Oh, and I knew in the back of my mind that Klinc^ic' means "clove" but imagine our surprise to find packages of cloves in grocery stores with KLINC^IC' in big letters across the front. We brought home some as souveniers for the siblings! (And on the coast there is a Put Gazica, Gazic' being my mom's surname.)

Ulica Zeljka Klincica means Zeljko Klincic Street. Zeljko is a male's first name, similar to Italian Desiderio. ----- At 07:03 PM 11/7/01 -0800, Carole Allen wrote: >Does anyone know what "Zeljka" means? > >While in Croatia in Sept., we found a street (a little outside Zagreb in >Brdovec) with my paternal surname.
