[Opinions] You called?
in reply to a message by Pie


I wasn't sure who she is and then remembered that Zinka Kunc married Predrag Milanov. Zinka and Milka Trnina (btw, the chocolate brand was named after her) are considered our greatest opera singers. The name comes from Rozina (from Rosina) via the diminutive form Rozinka. It's not used much now and was most popular in 1950s/60s.ETA: It could also be derived from any name ending in -zina-> -zinka, like: Terezina, Agnezina, Alojzina, Frozina, Fruzina, Eufrozina, Eufruzina, Krizina, Tomazina...
