Help[Opinions] Re: Dunja
in reply to a message by Perrine
Dunja is the fruit here. As a name it was most popular at the same time as Sanja, Tanja, Sonja, Vanja, so I kind of just lump it in that group.
I know a few Dunjas and no one’s ever mention the fruit meaning that I’ve noticed. Quince as fruit has a rather nostalgic, romantic connotation here and is quite common. It’s used like apples in deserts, jams and as scent.
The only other fruit names that are common are Višnja and Jagoda. I’ve also seen Malina a couple of times.
