Ibolyka is Hungarian in Origin.

Ibolyka is a Hungarian feminine name, an affectionate diminutive of Ibolya, the Hungarian word for the violet flower. Formed with the -ka suffix, it conveys tenderness and intimacy; the base Ibolya denotes the small, fragrant spring blossom associated with modesty, faithfulness, and hope.

As a given name, it entered steady use in Hungary during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when nature-inspired names grew fashionable, and persisted in registry records through the mid-century; today it feels vintage and rare, sometimes retained as a familial pet form. Variants and related forms include the standard Ibolya, hypocoristics like Ibi and Ibolyka (this entry), and the less common Ibolka. Cross-linguistic counterparts based on the same flower include Violet (English), Viola/Violetta (Italian), and Violeta (Spanish, Portuguese, Slavic). Meaning centers on the violet: violet blossom, with its traditional virtues.
