Nickola is Greek in Origin.
Nickola is a modern English respelling of Nicholas/Nikola, ultimately from Greek Nikolaos (nike, “victory” + laos, “people”), meaning “victory of the people.” Through Latin Nicolaus, the name spread with the cult of Saint Nicholas of Myra, becoming common across medieval Europe. The English form is Nicholas; French, Nicolas; Italian male usage favored Nicola; in Slavic regions Nikola (m.) and Nikolai (m.) are prevalent; Scandinavian use includes Nikolai; German is Nikolaus; Romanian Nicolae; Ukrainian Mykola; Polish Mikołaj; Dutch Nicolaas and Klaas.
Nickola appears in 19th–20th‑century Anglophone records as a rare, sometimes unisex, variant chosen for phonetic clarity or familial ties to Eastern European forms. Related spellings include Nickolas, Nikolas, and Nickolaus. Feminine counterparts are Nicole, Nicola, and Nikole. Common diminutives are Nick, Nicky, Nico, and Cole; other nick-based surnamic forms like Claus/Klaus/Klaas reflect the same root.
