Does anyone know the origins of this name or the correct pronunciation? The only place I've ever seen it is in the memoirs of the Holocaust survivor Isabella Katz Leitner; Chicha is one of her two older sisters who masterminded their escape in January of 1945. The Katz sisters are Hungarian, but I've never seen the name Chicha listed on a Hungarian name site, and I don't think it's a Hebrew or Yiddish name either.
