Meaning & History
Emőke is a Hungarian feminine given name. It is derived from the Hungarian word emő meaning "suckling (baby)" combined with the diminutive suffix -ke, giving the name a sense of "little suckling" or "nursling." Its phonetic rhythm is typical of Hungarian given names ending in -ke. The name gained limited use in Hungary, where it remains uncommon. It carries a tender, affectionate connotation, much like the English term "sweetheart." There are no known widely notable bearers.
