STOYANKA (Стоянка). A
diminutive form of Slavic Stoya
(q.v.), a feminine
form of Stoyan
(q.v.), meaning "enduring,
stable." Also see Stóyana.
Usage: Bulgaria, Serbia.
Vatralski's
wife had great faith in her husband, and tried her best, though often
unsuccessfully, to hide her fears.
"Listen, Ivan," she said one evening, while
her husband was mending the wooden fountain in the yard, "Baba
Stoyanka says evil is at hand."
"So?" he returned, without looking
up. "How does Baba Stoyanka know?"
"Thou rememberest the good sister who died here
three years ago? The Baba says her spirit came last night to give
the village warning." (Munsey's Magazine, v.17, 1897)
