Help[Surname] Re: Origin of "Forkapa"
in reply to a message by shmokken
This one's a mystery. I thought it might be one of those Italian or Friulian names, with spelling adapted, that are found in areas like Istria, where Porec is located, but I've found nothing like it in Italian sources.
I've checked in Serbo-Croat, and Slovenian dictionaries - nothing. Or in Italian, or even (long shot) Turkish.
It could be a place name, but I can't find a place with this name, or similar.
What next?
