The name Selma has its origins in both Arabic and Germanic languages, with its earliest roots traced back to the Arabic word "salama," meaning "peace" or "safety." It gained popularity in the 19th century, particularly in the United States, partly due to its association with the city of Selma, Alabama, which played a significant role in the civil rights movement. In terms of meaning, Selma is often associated with qualities such as tranquility and harmony, reflecting the peaceful connotations of its Arabic origin. Variations of the name can be found across different cultures, including Selma in Scandinavian countries, where it is sometimes used as a diminutive of names like Selina or as a standalone name. In Turkish, Selma is also a common name, retaining the same spelling but pronounced differently. Overall, Selma embodies a rich cultural heritage and a sense of calmness, making it a timeless choice for many.
The last name Viskari has its origins in Eastern Europe, particularly in regions that were historically influenced by Slavic cultures, such as parts of modern-day Poland and Ukraine. The name is believed to derive from the Slavic word "viska," which can be associated with the concept of a "spear" or "staff," suggesting a possible connection to a warrior or a person of significance in a community, perhaps indicating a lineage of protectors or leaders. Variations of the surname can be found in different countries, with spellings such as Viskary or Viskar, reflecting regional linguistic differences and adaptations. In some cases, the name may also appear in different forms due to transliteration from Cyrillic or other alphabets, which can alter pronunciation and spelling. While specific historical records detailing the name's bearers may be limited, the characteristics associated with the name suggest a heritage linked to strength and leadership, common traits among those who held such surnames in the past.
