What is the meaning of the name Niquola ?

The baby name Niquola is a Unisex name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced nee-KWOH-lah (alt. nih-KWOH-lah).

Niquola is Greek in Origin.

Niquola is a modern respelling of Nicola/Nicole, ultimately from Greek Nikolaos (nike “victory” + laos “people”), hence “victory of the people.” The insertion of qu reflects French orthography, echoing Nicole and the use of qu to represent a hard k sound before certain vowels. In English it is typically feminine and pronounced nih-KOH-lə, though families may prefer nee-KOH-lə.

Usage traces to late 20th-century United States records as a rare, creative variant, while the root family - Nicholas, Nicole, Nicola, Nikola - has been widespread since medieval Europe under the influence of Saint Nicholas of Myra and Norman French. Related forms include Nicola, Nichola, Nikola, Nicole, Nicolle, Nikole, Niquole, and diminutives such as Nikki, Niki, Nico, and Cola. In Italy, Nicola remains masculine; in Slavic languages Nikola is often unisex. Niquola offers a distinctive twist while preserving the classic meaning.
