Irenka Origin and Meaning

The name Irenka is a girl's name of Czech origin.

Irenka is a feminine name of Slavic origin, functioning as a diminutive form of Irene. The name carries the beautiful meaning "peace" from its Greek roots (Eirene). Popular in Poland, Czech Republic, and other Eastern European countries, Irenka adds the affectionate diminutive suffix "-ka" to create a name that sounds both sweet and dignified. While not widely used outside Slavic regions, it represents the rich naming traditions of Eastern Europe where diminutives often become formal given names. Irenka's melodic quality and meaningful etymology make it appealing as both a cultural connection for families with Slavic heritage and as a unique alternative to the more common Irene for others.
